2009 Map of Eakly NE

About this map

Distinctive topographic rises known as Twin Mounds, Ghost Mound, and Dead Woman Mound punctuate this rural Custer County landscape, suggesting a terrain defined by more than just its agricultural grid. This 2009 survey reveals an area heavily managed for water conservation, featuring numerous flood control structures such as Cobb Creek Site 4 Dam and the Oknoname 015019 Dam. These dams have created essential local water bodies like the Cartwright Reservoir and Cobb Creek Site 5 Reservoir. For genealogists and local historians, the map accurately positions the Mound Valley Cemetery in the northeast and Bethel Cemetery further south. The landscape is primarily organized by a rigid network of section-line roads, including e1100 RD and n2470 RD, which facilitate movement between the drainages of Fivemile Creek and Lake Creek.
