About this map

The Rock River winds through the heart of this Whiteside County landscape, anchoring the historic riverfront community of Prophetstown. This 2012 survey illustrates the town's grid south of the river, where streets like Ferry St and Birch St lead toward the River View Picnic Area. To the north, the village of Lyndon sits along the riverbank, surrounded by agricultural tracts and local landmarks such as Lyndon Cem.

Rural aviation is a distinct feature of the area, with Hiland Airport, Doerings Port Airport, and Francis Club Airport distributed across the countryside. Small residential clusters and crossroads like Hamilton Corners, Denrock, and Portland are connected by a network of local roads including Lyndon Rd and Star Rd. Notable terrain features such as Indian Island and Millwoods Island sit within the river's path, while smaller waterways like Walker Slough and Coon Creek drain the surrounding fields.
