1980 Map of Sac City West

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

North Raccoon River drainage and the surrounding agricultural uplands define this 1980 survey of Sac County. The landscape is a study in mid-century transportation and land use, featuring the western portions of Sac City and the town of Early. Two major rail lines, the Chicago and North Western and the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific, cross the territory, illustrating the infrastructure required to move Iowa's grain to market. Conservation areas like the Kiowa Marsh State Public Hunting Area and Kiowa Marsh occupy the low-lying glacial depressions in Boyer Valley, contrasting with the orderly section lines and numerous Gravel Pits that supported local road building. Traces of rural life are visible through scattered farmsteads and small creeks like Indian Creek, while a Golf Course and Radio Tower mark the outskirts of the county seat.
