About this map

Toston serves as a central hub in this Broadwater County landscape, where the Missouri River is managed through an intricate network of irrigation and infrastructure. The map details an extensive system of water transport, including the Broadwater Missouri Canal, Big Springs Ditch, and the Lombard Canal, reflecting the region's reliance on these waterways for agricultural development. Engineering landmarks are prominent, notably the Missouri River Bridge and the Toston Tunnel, which facilitate passage through the river corridor.

Surrounding the settlement of Toston, the terrain transitions into distinctive areas like Dry Hollow to the north and the evocatively named Devils Bottom along a southern bend of the river. Smaller locales such as Holker and Brewer are connected by a grid of rural routes like Six Mile Rd and Lombard Rd. The presence of several named canals, such as the Willow Swamp Canal and Toston Canal, underscores a highly modified riparian environment designed to support the local economy.
