2012 Map of Collinston West

About this map

Staulkinghead Creek and Jordan Creek wind through this Louisiana landscape, defining the rural drainage patterns of Morehouse Parish in the early 21st century. The map highlights a series of small, dispersed communities like Spyker, Upland, and Marcarco, reflecting the low-density settlement characteristic of this region. Notable family and local history landmarks are preserved in the locations of the Pickett Cemetery, Howell Cemetery, and Carter Cemetery, which stand alongside agricultural infrastructure. A network of local routes, including Spyker Road and Levee Road, connects these small hubs across the alluvial plain. Further south, the Fairbanks Lookout Tower remains a prominent landmark near the community of Wham, while the intricate waterways of Stink Creek and Corney Slu suggest the complex wetland environment that shapes land use in this part of the state.
