2016 Map of Sterley

About this map

The agricultural landscape of the High Plains north of Lockney is defined by a rigid grid of section roads and numerous ephemeral basins. At the center of this 2016 survey lies the small community of Sterley, where Fm 2286 and Co RD 119 intersect amidst a network of county roads like Co RD 80 and Co RD 100. This area of Floyd County illustrates a highly organized rural economy, characterized by specialized pathways such as the Farmer Turnrow and the localized Outback Airport. The southern edge of the map captures the northern residential streets of Lockney, including N Main St and W Washington St, while the Lockney Cem serves as a significant landmark for those tracing local family histories. The presence of numerous small, seasonal water features scattered between the roads highlights the natural drainage patterns of this flat, productive region.
