1967 Map of Arnold Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Prescott National Forest dominates this mid-century landscape in Yavapai County, where the high desert terrain is defined by the broad plateaus of Arnold Mesa, Cottonwood Mesa, and Yellow Jacket Mesa. This 1967 field-checked survey reveals a ranching and mining environment characterized by an extensive network of water tanks and springs, such as Rice Spring and South Hole Spring, which were essential for sustaining life in this arid region. Traces of human activity are scattered throughout the canyons and draws, including the Arnold Place and the ruins of the Horner Cabin. Significant landmarks like Squaw Peak and Reimer Peak provide orientation amidst the winding Arnold Canyon and Cottonwood Canyon. Historical industrial markers are found near Cedar Mill and the identified Mines near the Uslm 2928 mineral monument, showing the intersection of resource extraction and the wilderness.
