2011 Map of South Heart

About this map

South Heart and the nearby siding of Eland are the primary points of interest on this high-plains landscape, where the meandering Heart River flows eastward across Stark County. The river is joined from the north by North Creek, while the southern portion of the quadrangle is defined by the extensive drainage network of Ash Creek. A prominent geological feature, White Butte, stands as a local landmark amidst the systematic grid of rural roads. This 2011 survey documents the established agricultural layout of the region, anchored by the transportation corridor of Main Ave E and the north-south axis of 121st Ave SW. The map provides a clear view of the relationship between the town's early 21st-century development and the natural watercourses that shaped its settlement history.
