About this map

Houck Covered Bridge, Manhatten Covered Bridge, and Huffman Covered Bridge anchor this topographical study of Putnam County, Indiana, where the winding course of Big Walnut Cr and its tributaries define the rural landscape. The settlement patterns are concentrated along the historical corridor of the US-40 and I-70 highways, connecting the communities of Reelsville, Pleasant Gardens, and Manhattan.

The terrain is characterized by notable elevations and natural features such as Fern Cliff and Indian Ridge, alongside water bodies including Thomas Lake and Greyhound Lake. To the northeast, the outskirts of Limedale appear, while smaller creek branches like Snake Cr, Deweese Br, and Leatherwood Cr create a complex network of drainage. The map documents the enduring infrastructure of this region, from its unique cluster of timber-frame bridges to the local roads that cross Deer Cr and Johnson Br.
