2015 Map of Unique

About this map

Unique sits at the center of this rural landscape, which spans the boundary of Humboldt and Webster counties. The terrain is defined by a series of waterways, most notably the Des Moines River in the northeast corner, crossed by the Berkheimer Bridge and the Des Moines River Bridge. The land is meticulously organized into a grid of county roads, such as Co Hwy P29 and Co Hwy P33, interspersed with numerous drainage features like Drainage Ditch Number 20. This area reveals the persistent agricultural infrastructure of the region, where family history is preserved at the Weaver Township Cemetery and Our Saviors Cemetery. In the northeast, the Humboldt Municipal Airport stands as a modern landmark amidst the traditional section lines. The presence of Indian Creek, Bass Creek, and Deer Creek further illustrates the complex watershed that dictates the placement of farmsteads and transport routes.
