About this map

Storm Lake dominates the northern reaches of this Iowa landscape, its southern shoreline dotted with small residential clusters and recreational areas. The community of Lakeside sits prominently near Lakeside Beach and Outlet Creek, while the northwestern corner of the lake features Casino Beach. This region reflects a well-organized agricultural grid typical of Buena Vista and Sac counties, where a network of section roads like County Road 72 and 130th Avenue connect isolated rural hubs.

Genealogical interest is high across these townships, with several historic burial grounds serving as primary landmarks, including the Hayes Township Cemetery and Chase Cemetery. Further south, the German Methodist Cemetery and Immanuel Reformed Cemetery indicate the early cultural and religious roots of the local farming community. The landscape is drained by Boyer Creek and the Boyer River, which meander through the southern fields near the settlement of Juniata.
