About this map

Mississippi River backwaters and islands dominate the center of this landscape, where the Savanna - Sabula Bridge connects the riverfront communities of Savanna and Sabula. The intricate network of waterways includes Sabula Lakes, Town Lake, and the Sweeney Islands, illustrating a complex riparian environment shaped by the river's flow between Illinois and Iowa.

Away from the riverbanks, the terrain transitions into agricultural land dotted with small settlements and family burial grounds. Researchers can find Saint Peter's Catholic Cem near the community of Samoa, as well as Dickson Cem and Evergreen Cem further inland. The rural infrastructure is evidenced by the Hillside Stables Airport and the scattered hamlets of Teeds Grove and Hauntown, while the Plum River and Schramling Cr drain the surrounding fields into the Mississippi basin.
