2009 Map of Morrison

About this map

The town of Morrison serves as the focal point of this Noble County landscape, which by the early 21st century was defined by a sophisticated system of flood control and water management. Numerous impoundments, including the Upper Black Bear Creek Site 75 Reservoir and Upper Black Bear Creek Site 5 Reservoir, dot the terrain, created by dams like the Upper Black Bear Creek Site 7 Dam. These structures manage the flow of Black Bear Creek and its many tributaries, such as Otoe Creek and Spring Creek, which wind through a grid of rural section-line roads.
