About this map

Gilmore City sits at the intersection of Pocahontas and Humboldt Counties, serving as a hub for the surrounding agricultural prairie during the late 1970s. The landscape is defined by the industrial presence of several Quarry sites and the operational Chicago and North Western railroad line that bisects the town. Water management and recreation are central to the area's layout, from the Sewage Disp Ponds near the city center to the established Lizard Lake County Park in the southwest corner. The drainage patterns of North Branch Lizard Creek, Indian Cr, and Deer Creek illustrate the natural topography that dictates the local township boundaries of Garfield, Avery, and Lizard. Local history is anchored by the St Johns Cem and Marble Valley Cem, which provide genealogical touchstones for the community.
