About this map

Storm Lake dominates the northern landscape, its southern shoreline defined by the Storm Lake State Wildlife Management Area and the community of Lakeside. The area reflects a late-1970s balance of recreation and education, featuring the Iowa Central Community College campus and public amenities like a Drive-in Theater and a lakeside Boat Ramp. Moving south from the water, the terrain transitions into a grid of agricultural sections across Hayes and Eden townships.

Industrial and transportation infrastructure is concentrated along the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad line, which passes through Juniata. Local history is anchored by the Immanuel Ch and Chase Cem, while the headwaters of the Boyer River and Boyer Creek wind through the southern half of the quadrangle. The Storm Lake Municipal Airport serves as a modern waypoint on the western edge of the survey.
