About this map

The Eel River winds through this agricultural landscape in Wabash County, anchoring several small rural communities that define the region's 21st-century character. Laketon sits near the northwestern edge, positioned between the river and the waters of Round Lake and Mud Lake. Further south, the settlement of Urbana serves as a local crossroads, while smaller hamlets like Ijamsville, Newton, and Bolivar are scattered across the interior.

Drainage systems are a defining human-altered feature of this terrain, with an extensive network of managed waterways including Hamilton Ditch, Miller Ditch, and Keafaber Ditch supporting the surrounding farmland. These engineered channels feed into natural tributaries like Paw Paw Cr and Beargrass Cr. The map's grid of section roads, such as W State Road 114 and Hoover Rd, illustrates the persistent township-and-range layout that has organized this part of northern Indiana for generations.
