About this map

Lexington serves as the focal point of this 2015 study, situated at a dramatic bend where the Missouri River transitions through Lexington Bend, Sheep Nose Bend, and Tabo Bend. The landscape is defined by the sharp contrast between the northern floodplains of the Crooked River and the elevated, dissected bluffs to the south. Notable institutional landmarks include the Wentworth Military Acad, which has long anchored the local community.

Rural life is marked by numerous water bodies like Hicklin Lake, Lafayette Dio Lake, and several numbered reservoirs including Number 141 Reservoir, indicating a managed hydrologic environment. Genealogists and local researchers will find value in the placement of Forest Grove Cemetery and Slusher Cemetery, while the presence of Goodloe Orchard Rd and Dwarf Lake Rd points to the local agricultural and geographic character of this Lafayette County region.
