1948 Map of Antelope Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

Verde Mountain and the high desert of the Hidden Valley anchor this mid-century survey of the arid borderlands between Maricopa and Pinal Counties. The landscape is defined by the sharp verticality of Antelope Peak and Table Top, rising dramatically from the surrounding desert floor where water management is marked by occasional Well and Tank symbols. These sparse water sources highlight the survival challenges in this environment, which is shared by the Maricopa Indian Reservation in the northeast and the Papago Indian Reservation to the south. The course of Vekol Wash provides the primary drainage through the terrain, winding past Indian Butte and the Papago Buttes. This 1948 edition, with shaded relief added in 1953, offers a clear perspective on the landforms before modern agricultural or residential expansion altered the valley floor.
