About this map

Eagle City sits at the heart of this mid-1980s landscape in Blaine County, serving as a focal point for the surrounding rural townships of Liberty, Canton, Carlton, and Arapahoe. The town’s spatial layout is defined by the diagonal path of the Burlington Northern railroad, which cuts through the grid and connects the community to broader trade networks. To the south, the Eagle City Cem serves as a significant landmark for genealogists and local historians tracking the area's pioneer families and early residents.

The natural geography is dominated by the meandering North Canadian River as it winds through the eastern portion of the quadrangle. This riparian corridor contrasts with the industrious nature of the surrounding plains, where numerous Gas Wells and Drill Holes indicate the importance of the energy sector to the local economy. Water management is evident near the town center at the Sewage-Disposal Pond, while Ninemile Creek drains the northwestern corner, illustrating the local drainage patterns that shaped regional agriculture.
