2013 Map of Pimento

About this map

Prairieton and the agricultural lands south of Terre Haute are captured here in the early 21st century, revealing a landscape defined by drainage engineering and small-scale aviation. The intricate network of waterways, including McFarland Ditch and Hayworth Slough, illustrates the ongoing management of the Wabash River floodplain. This region supports several rural aviation sites, such as Aero Plaines Airport and the Kester Fly Inn Airport, reflecting a local culture of private flight integrated with farm life. Smaller settlements like Pimento and Youngstown serve as central nodes for the surrounding countryside, while larger water bodies like Wadsworth Lake and Boyle Lake provide distinct geographic markers amidst the grid of county roads. The southern edge of the survey transitions into the town of Farmersburg, marking the boundary of this productive Indiana prairie.
