About this map

Jansen serves as the central hub of this Jefferson County landscape, where the intersection of 715th Rd and Meridian St anchors the small grid of the town. The surrounding terrain is defined by a dense network of drainage, including the headwaters of Rock Creek and Big Indian Creek. Local history is preserved at the Jansen Cem and Bartel Cem, located just west of the town center.

The area's agricultural and water management needs are evident through features like Cub Cr Reservoir 10-C and Cub Cr Reservoir 13-D. These reservoirs, coupled with the winding courses of Cub Creek and Smith Creek, illustrate how the natural prairie topography has been adapted for modern land use. The map provides a precise layout of the county's section lines and rural road system, from PWF Rd in the south to 719th Rd along the northern border.
