1974 Map of Morrison

About this map

The Missouri River corridor serves as the primary artery for this mid-1970s landscape, where riverfront settlements like Portland and Bluffton are connected by the Missouri Pacific railroad. The topography is defined by the significant river bottomlands and the rugged bluffs of the Loutre and Auxvasse districts, which rise sharply from the water. Near the confluence with the Gasconade River, the town of Morrison sits nestled against the hills, serving as a focal point for the surrounding rural townships of Benton and Richland.
