2013 Map of Giard

About this map

Bloody Run carves through the landscape of northeastern Iowa, defining the drainage patterns south of Watson. This 2013 survey illustrates a rural section of Allamakee County where small settlements like Beulah and Froelich are linked by a network of local roads. In the northern reaches, the Yellow River flows near the community of Ion, while the southern portion of the map is marked by the presence of Giard and the headwaters of Sny Magill Cr. The transport infrastructure includes the Monona Municipal Airport and uniquely named thoroughfares such as Spook Cave Rd and Old Mission Rd, suggesting the area's geological and cultural history. The terrain is characterized by numerous creek valleys, including Suttle Cr and Dousman Cr, which separate the agricultural plateaus and timbered hollows typical of this corner of the state.
