The town of Thor serves as the central hub of this agricultural landscape in north-central Iowa, situated just above the Humboldt and Webster County line. The terrain is defined by a sophisticated water management network, including Drainage Ditch Number 40 and Ditch Number 25, which allowed for the cultivation of the fertile prairie lands. This 2018 survey reveals a high density of rural cemeteries that reflect the area's pioneer heritage, such as Willicksen Cem, Norway Lake Cem, and the dual East and West Ullensvang Cemeteries. Natural waterways like Soldier Cr and Beaver Cr meander through the grid of section roads, including County Highway P66 and County Highway C48, which connect the scattered farmsteads and historical burial grounds that dot the landscape.
