2010 Map of Craig

About this map

Craig serves as the regional hub at the confluence of human industry and the high desert landscape, positioned where Fortification Creek joins the Yampa River. The town's layout is defined by a grid of streets like Ranney St and E Victory Way, while the surrounding geography is marked by essential water management infrastructure, including the Wisconsin Ditch and the Craig Ditch. To the north, Cedar Mountain overlooks a landscape deeply involved in resource extraction, evidenced by the cluster of mining and quarrying operations south and east of the city center. The presence of the Three Sisters Mine, Edmundson Mine, and several industrial sites like the Moon Pit and Grace Pit highlights the importance of the local geology to the regional economy. This 2010 survey records the intricate network of county roads, such as County Rd-103 and County Rd-22, that link outlying ranches and gulches to the urban core.
