About this map

The northern edge of Holstein anchors this landscape at the intersection of the Cherokee and Ida County line. This agricultural region is defined by a rigorous grid of section-line roads, including Silver Sioux Rd and German Ave, which traverse the undulating terrain drained by Silver Cr and Fourmile Cr. The map captures the rural community infrastructure of the late 2010s, where traditional burial grounds like Silver Cem and Holstein Cem remain as permanent landmarks amid the shifting cycles of Iowa corn and soybean fields. The intricate contour lines reveal the subtle drainage patterns of smaller tributaries such as Ashton Cr and Hay Run as they carve through the high prairie before reaching the larger creek valleys.
