About this map

Glacial depressions and small water bodies dominate this McPherson County landscape, which is largely dedicated to conservation and seasonal land use. Public lands define the northeastern quadrant, including the Moscow State Public Shooting Area and a National Waterfowl Production Area, reflecting the region's importance to the Central Flyway. Human settlement is sparse and primarily agricultural, anchored by the presence of the Lutheran Cem and Congregational Cem, which serve as quiet markers of the community's ancestral ties. Small-scale resource extraction is visible through scattered Gravel Pits and a lone Gravel Pit to the south. The terrain's character is further evidenced by a singular Well near the southwestern corner, indicating the necessity of managed water access in this prairie environment.
