These two maps were issued in Owen's Illustrations to the Geological Report of Wisconsin, Iowa, and Minnesota, published by Lippincott, Grambo & Co. Together they follow the course of the Missouri River from St. Louis to present-day Sioux City, Iowa. The maps name settlements, locate tributaries, highlight topographical features, and feature numerous geological cross sections along the river. Owen's comprehensive geological study covered portions of the Missouri River, Upper Mississippi, and Great Lakes, and was the first to point out the vast mineral resources in these regions.
