2022 Map of Wadena
USGS Topo · Published 2022About this map
The Volga River carves a winding path through the heart of Fayette County, anchoring a landscape defined by small valley settlements and high prairie ridges. This modern survey captures the enduring rural character of northeastern Iowa, where the river's course is followed by the town of Wadena and the nearby Lima. The map highlights a high density of historical burying grounds, including Saint Josephs Cem and Corn Hill Cem, which serve as vital touchstones for family historians. Further south, the terrain levels out around Arlington, while features like Blue Spring and the heights of Bear Hill offer a look at the natural geography that dictated early settlement patterns. Traces of past communities remain visible at Taylorsville, located at a bend in Brush Cr, documenting the persistence of these rural places.
