About this map

Riverton occupies the center of this landscape at the confluence of the West Nishnabotna River and East Nishnabotna River. The topography is dominated by the extensive Riverton State Game Management Area, which preserves a complex network of wetlands and seasonal water bodies within the river basin. For local historians, the sheet documents the transition of the regional transportation network, specifically the presence of an Old Railroad Grade running east of the town. Outside the main settlement, rural land use is indicated by various small drainages like Mill Creek and Madison Creek, as well as established family-named landmarks such as Redd Cem and Utterback Cem. The map provides a clear picture of the hydrological management and agricultural layout in southern Fremont County during the early 1980s.
