2016 Map of Eagle

About this map

Eagle and Gypsum anchor this high-elevation mountain valley where the Eagle River carves through a landscape of steep gulches and ridges. The map reveals an intricate network of water management, with numerous irrigation features like the Wilkinson Ditch, Hollingsworth-Ditch, and Oleson Ditch supporting the local terrain. Higher elevations are marked by prominent landmarks such as Greenhorn Mtn and Fivemile Rock, while the canyon floor shows the modern expansion of residential streets like Kaibab Rd and Fulford Dr. Local history is preserved in sites such as the Sunset View Cem and the distinctive Spud Cellar near Brush Creek. The geography here transitions sharply from the riparian corridor of the river to the high ridges of The Boneyard and Redneck Ridge, illustrating the balance of mountain ranching and modern residential development.
