2015 Map of Pisgah

About this map

Pisgah serves as the central hub of this Missouri River valley region, situated where the Soldier River carves through the undulating loess hill topography of western Iowa. The landscape is defined by the sharp contrast between the flat alluvial plains of the Little Sioux River in the northwest and the intricate drainage network of Cobb Cr and Steer Cr to the south. Local history is anchored by sites like Fountainbleau Cem and Soldier Valley Cem, which provide significant points of interest for genealogical research. The road network, including Ia 183 and various county roads like Co HWY e60, follows the natural contours of the valley floors, illustrating how the area's geography has dictated transport and settlement patterns since the early 20th century.
