2013 Map of Gillett Grove

About this map

Gillett Grove sits as the central settlement in this portion of Clay County, positioned along the meandering path of the Little Sioux River. The township's landscape is defined by the drainage patterns of several tributaries, including Lexington Cr and Elk Cr, which flow through a grid of agricultural section roads. The local infrastructure of this rural corridor is anchored by the junction of Co Hwy-B53 and Co Hwy-M54, while remnants of the area's transportation history are preserved in street names like Railway St within the town site. Further north, the Lost Island Outlet and Prairie Cr traverse the open countryside, illustrating the complex hydrology that historically dictated the placement of farms and early homesteads across these Iowa prairies.
