About this map

The Middle River winds through the heart of Madison County, framing the layout of Winterset and the surrounding agricultural landscape. This 2013 survey provides a detailed look at the town's street grid and its connection to rural outliers like Ord and Price. Notable for its local landmarks, the area includes the Cutler--Donahue Covered Bridge and the Clark Memorial Tower, both serving as focal points for local heritage. The map also records several educational sites, including Stringtown School, Prairie Flower School, Middle River School, and Washington School, which speak to the distributed community structure of the region.

Transportation and recreation are well-defined by the Winterset Municipal Airport and the Madison County Fairgrounds. The topography is shaped by various waterways, including Cedar Cr and Jones Cr, which have influenced the placement of rural roads such as Hogback Bridge Rd and Cedar Bridge Rd. The inclusion of the Harmon Tunnel and the Winterset City Park Campground further highlights the intersection of public infrastructure and the natural river valley terrain.
