About this map

The Middle Raccoon River carves a winding path through this corner of Guthrie and Dallas Counties, anchoring a landscape where rural township grids meet recreational development. On the northern edge of the town of Panora, the waters of Lake Panorama dominate the topography, illustrating the area's transition toward lakeside residential living. The town itself maintains its traditional layout, centered around the Po and streets like W Main St and E Market St.

Tracing the path of the old rail corridor, the Raccoon River Valley Trl cuts diagonally through the terrain, connecting Panora to the smaller settlement of Linden in the southeast. This trail follows the natural contours of the river valley, passing several historical burial grounds including Greenwood Cem and Brethren Cem. The surrounding sections remain largely agricultural, drained by waterways such as Bay Branch, Cass Cr, and Mosquito Cr.
