2012 Map of Stark

About this map

Stark serves as the focal point of this northern New Hampshire landscape, where the Upper Ammonoosuc River winds beneath the iconic Stark Bridge. The settlement patterns here are defined by the river valley and the steep rises of the Pilot Range, with several distinct peaks like Mount Cabot and The Horn dominating the southern terrain. To the northwest, the small community of Percy sits along the rail line near Dickey Hill, while the remote area known as Lost Nation occupies the southwestern corner near Cummings Brook. The map reveals a network of forest roads and spurs, such as Stark Spur C, that penetrate the high country around Hutchins Mountain, reflecting the area's history of timber access and mountain recreation. The contrast between the narrow valley floor and the massive granite features like Devils Slide underscores the geographical constraints on development in this portion of Coos County.
