2018 Map of Kiron

About this map

The town of Kiron sits at the intersection of a complex agricultural grid, serving as a focal point where the borders of Crawford, Ida, and Sac Counties converge. This landscape is defined by the headwaters of several drainage systems, most notably the Boyer River and Otter Cr, which carve gentle valleys through the sectioned farmland. The placement of rural community markers like Bethel Cem, Kiron Cem, and Saint Johns Lutheran Cem provides a geographic record of the area's denominational and family settlement patterns. Further south, Lehfeld Cem rests near the banks of Otter Cr, illustrating how early pioneers utilized the higher ground near watercourses. The network of county highways, including Co HWY e16 and Co HWY m31, follows the township and range lines established over a century ago, maintaining the rectilinear character of this western Iowa farming region.
