About this map

Story City and the neighboring communities of Randall and Roland anchor this northern Iowa landscape, where the South Skunk River meanders southward through a grid of agricultural section lines and rural homesteads. The terrain is marked by numerous family and community burial grounds, including the Danish Cem, Mount Olive Cem, and Mamrelund Cem, which reflect the area's heritage and early settlement patterns across Hamilton and Story counties.

Waterways like Long Dick Cr, Miller Cr, and Bear Cr provide natural drainage for the surrounding farmland, while Comar Lake and Keigley Br offer distinct landmarks in the southwestern portion of the sheet. Modern infrastructure is represented by the north-south corridor of Upton Ave and the crossing of the Keigley Branch Bridge, illustrating how the region's transport network has evolved to link these established prairie towns.
