1968 Map of Boundary Butte

About this map

Sitgreaves National Forest and Apache National Forest converge in this high-altitude landscape of eastern Arizona, where ranching and resource extraction define the local economy. The terrain is marked by volcanic features like Wolf Mountain and Juan Garcia Mountain, alongside essential water sources such as San Juan Lake and Porter Lake. Evidence of small-scale industry appears at the Vernon Pit and Cinder Pit, while the presence of the Vernon Cem and scattered outposts like the Carlock Ranch and Neagle Ranch provides a window into the sparse settlement patterns of the late 1960s.
