1971 Map of Moorhead NW

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Preparation Canyon State Park anchors the southeastern portion of this terrain, where the Missouri River Basin development program documented the sharp transition from the flat bottomlands of the Little Sioux River to the complex ridges of the Loess Hills. The mapping illustrates an intricate hydrological network where Beaver Creek and Cottonwood Creek meet the valley floor, controlled by a system of levees and gaging stations. Cultural landmarks are scattered throughout the elevated townships of Belvidere, Jordan, and Spring Valley, including the Ingemann Ch and remote burial sites like Bethesda Cem. The southern edge is defined by the course of the Soldier River and its confluence with Hall Creek, providing a detailed look at the rural landscape and drainage patterns of Monona County in the early 1970s.
