2012 Map of Mokane West

About this map

Missouri River bottomlands and the winding course of the Middle River dominate this landscape in Callaway County. The map documents the area surrounding Mokane, where the terrain transitions from the river's broad floodplains to the dissected uplands. Local family history is well-represented through several burial sites, including Mount Tabor Cemetery, Middle River Cemetery, and Riverview Cemetery. Smaller named settlements like Liberty, Musick, and Browns Ford serve as focal points for the rural road network, which includes State Road PP and State Road VV. The intricate drainage pattern of Prime Creek, Muddy Creek, and Clabber Creek illustrates the complex hydrology that has shaped this region's agriculture and settlement. Significant water bodies such as Katy Lake and Paul Herring Lake offer further landmarks for those studying the physical geography and land-use history of this river-aligned territory.
