2019 Map of Starkville

About this map

Starkville anchors the northeastern corner of this landscape, where the valley terrain meets the built environment of Railroad Ave and the Starkville Cem. This 2019 survey documents a complex network of canyons and ridges, including the prominent Long Canyon and Oso Canyon. The map reveals the area's industrial legacy through labels like the Sopris Mine Trl and Old Sopris Trl, which hint at the region's historical connection to coal mining and the nearby former town of Sopris. Drainage patterns are clearly defined by Gallinas Cr and Long Creek, which wind through a series of steep topographic features. This modern topographic record captures the evolution of local infrastructure, showing a transition from traditional mining-era routes to contemporary developments like Vista West Dr and Wildlife Dr.
