About this map

The W Fork Little Sioux River meanders through this agricultural landscape southeast of Moville, defining the drainage patterns of Woodbury County. This 2013 survey illustrates a highly structured section-line road network, where routes like Otter Ave, Nature Ave, and 300th St divide the terrain into traditional farming blocks. Several vital tributaries feed into the river system, including Mud Cr and the seasonal path of Dry Br, which carve subtle relief into the prairie. The diagonal orientation of Highway 140 provides a modern contrast to the rigid cardinal-direction grid of the surrounding rural roads. Local genealogists and historians can use these precise road and waterway intersections to pinpoint family homesteads and early 21st-century land divisions, particularly near McElhaney Cr and W Mud Cr in the southern portion of the quadrangle.
