2013 Map of Little Cedar

About this map

The Little Cedar River and the Wapsipinicon River define the agricultural landscape of this Mitchell County corner, where a strict section-line grid of rural roads connects multi-generational farmsteads. The unincorporated community of Little Cedar sits at the southern edge of the sheet, while the small settlement of Meyer serves as a northern waypoint for local travel. Named agricultural sites such as Pronet Farms, McCarthy Farms, and Winkels Farm emphasize the region's enduring farming legacy into the 21st century. Infrastructure is localized, characterized by crossings like the Little Cedar River Bridge and the path of Beaver Cr as it winds through the eastern fields. The map documents a classic Iowa interior where the river systems dictate the subtle deviations in an otherwise orderly township geometry.
