About this map

Eagleton Fields sits atop a high plateau in this part of Clinton County, surrounded by a complex network of forest roads and hiking trails that weave through the mountainous terrain. The landscape is defined by its deep drainage systems, including the headwaters of the North Fork Tangascootack Cr and numerous smaller branches like Smokehouse Run and Monument Run. This 2013 survey illustrates how modern recreation and forest management have shaped the area, with names like Spring Lick Trl, Boiler Maker Trl, and Smoke House Trl indicating a region heavily utilized for backcountry access.

Prominent landforms such as Shoemaker Ridge and Bear Swamp provide natural landmarks for those studying the physical geography or early land use of Bald Eagle Township. The density of named hollows, including Dishpan Hollow and Roger Hollow, suggests a history of localized naming conventions likely tied to early timber or hunting camps. Access is primarily provided by corridors like Beech Creek Mountain Rd and Eagleton Rd, which connect these high ridges to the valley floor.
