About this map

The Iowa River meanders through the northeast corner of this Hardin County landscape, creating a distinct riparian corridor contrasted by the rigid section-line road grid that defines the surrounding prairie. This network of rural routes, including Railroad Ave and S Ave, connects several small settlements and points of interest. The village of Owasa sits at the intersection of Co Hwy-S45 and 185th St, while further east, the small communities of Eagle City and Berlin are situated near the banks of the river and its tributaries.

Waterways like Beaver Cr and Little Beaver Cr cut across the township, following natural drainage patterns that have influenced local property lines and road placements for generations. Landmarks such as the Hardin City Bridge and the Cross Ford Access Area highlight traditional river crossings and points of community access. This survey preserves the exact spatial relationship of these rural hamlets and the enduring agricultural infrastructure of the region.
