1986 Map of Bozarth Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Bozarth Mesa dominates this high-altitude landscape of central Arizona, where an intricate network of deep canyons and mesa tops supported the region's ranching and water management systems in the 1980s. The topography is defined by significant elevation drops from Wilder Point and Contreras Mesa down into the winding beds of Francis Creek and Boulder Creek. A reliance on carefully managed water sources is evident through scattered infrastructure such as Brushy Basin Tank, Tod Reese Tank, and the Pumping Station near Zana Canyon. Evidence of land use and small-scale exploration appears in family-named landmarks like Butcher Corral Point and a lone Prospect located near the southern drainage. The map reveals the isolation of Behm Mesa and the lower Urie Basin, areas where seasonal flows like Warm Spring Creek and Cold Spring provided vital resources in an otherwise arid environment.
