About this map

Maple River drainage patterns define the topography of this western Iowa landscape, where the Woodbury and Ida County line divides the rolling agricultural terrain. The map captures a moment in the late 1960s when rural life was anchored by landmarks like St Pauls Ch in the north and St Marys Cem to the south. Transportation and industry are concentrated in the southeastern corner, where the Chicago and North Western railroad corridor runs parallel to the river valley near a local Gravel Pit. Numerous smaller waterways, including Big Creek, Aldrich Creek, and Moorhead Creek, carve through the townships of Morgan, Maple, Liston, and Garfield. This survey is particularly detailed regarding land boundaries, featuring fine red dashed lines that indicate specific fence and field lines as they appeared during aerial photography in 1968.
