2011 Map of Eagle Roost

About this map

Slate Creek serves as a central hub in this high-elevation landscape, where the Blue River carves a deep path toward the Green Mountain Reservoir in the northwest. The terrain is defined by dramatic local relief, rising from the river valley to prominent summits like Eagle Roost, Flat Top, and Palmer Knob. This 2011 survey captures the area’s dual identity as a recreational corridor and a historic mining district, evidenced by the clustered campgrounds of McDonald Flats, Prairie Point, and Davis Springs along the reservoir's edge, contrasted with industrial remnants such as the Big Four Mine.
