How to Use This Eagle Mountain, California Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Eagle Mountain, California. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of California or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Eagle Mountain.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

About Eagle Mountain, California
Eagle Mountain is a locality in Riverside County, California, United States. It is a small community with a population of 480. The population density is 5.0 people per km². Eagle Mountain is located at 33.8575°N, 115.4872°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP codes: 92239, 92241.Eagle Mountain holds the sun in a stark, unyielding grip, casting long shadows across a landscape defined by the austere geometry of the desert. It lies 37.7 miles east-southeast of Twentynine Palms, CA (from Twentynine Palms, CA: bearing 120°T), and is situated 42.9 miles east-northeast of Indio. The terrain here is a serrated expanse of arid basins and jagged ridgelines, where the earth is bleached to the color of bone and weathered by winds that carry the grit of the open plains. Only a mile away, the silence of Bald Eagle Canyon provides a deep, natural corridor that channels the heat, while the nearby Eagle Creek traces a thin, intermittent line through the parched soil. From the high ground, the distant, hazy silhouette of the Eagle Mountains anchors the horizon, standing as a silent, monolithic boundary against the immense, cloudless sky that dominates the region.
Industrial ambition once carved deep into the crust of Eagle Mountain, leaving behind the hollowed-out remnants of a massive mining operation that directed the flow of iron ore toward the nation’s steel mills. Today, the stillness of the desert has reclaimed the periphery, save for the quiet stretches of the Chuckwalla Area of Critical Environmental Concern that buffers the land from encroaching development. While the pace of life remains slow and deliberate, the legacy of extraction lingers in the rusted machinery and the vast, empty pits that hold the heat long after the sun retreats. Fourteen miles to the north, the waters of Long Tank offer a rare, singular point of moisture in an environment that otherwise demands a rigorous, quiet endurance from everything that persists upon its surface.

About This Eagle Mountain Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Eagle Mountain, California. Coordinates: 33.857514, -115.487208. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.
Detailed location data for Eagle Mountain includes the ZIP code (92239, 92241), telephone area code (714), county seat of Riverside County (Riverside), and school district assignment.
Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
