The Cottonwood River meanders across the northern portion of this agricultural landscape, where the small settlement of Leavenworth is situated along its southern bank. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of both the main river and the Little Cottonwood River to the south, reflecting a complex drainage pattern across Brown County. The map shows a transition from natural water bodies like Altermatt Lake to engineered agricultural waterways such as County Ditch Number Twenty-eight-one. A dense grid of rural roads, including 170th St and Co Hwy 100, provides access to the surrounding farmsteads. This 2022 survey captures the contemporary rural character of the region, where modern infrastructure intersects with the ancient river corridors that have long dictated the placement of local crossings and community centers.
