About this map

The Des Moines River carves a winding path through this northern section of Wapello County, anchoring a landscape where industrial infrastructure meets recreational space. The riverfront features notable landmarks like Turkey Island and the Black Hawk River Access, while the surrounding neighborhoods of Pickwick and East Ottumwa reflect the city's residential spread. To the north, the Ottumwa Industrial Airport and several rail-associated settlements like Ottumwa Junction and Rutledge highlight the area's role as a regional transport hub.

Away from the urban center, the terrain transitions into a network of creeks and wooded pockets, such as Camp Wish-Ton-Wish along the banks of Bear Cr. Small historic localities including Phillips and Port Richmond are documented here, alongside local community fixtures like the Ottumwa Municipal Golf Course. The map captures the complex drainage of the region, featuring Comstock Cr, Little Cedar Cr, and Kettle Cr.
