Hawkeye Point, Elev.= 1670 ft., highpoint of the state of Iowa

Located in Osceola County

The highest point in Iowa is on a farm in the far northwest corner of the state. This photo was during my visit in June 2001 when the farm was owned by the Sterler family. The family has since donated the land to Osceola County with the provision that the land be turned into a park. There have been some changes since then so the high point may look different.
