1967 Map of Brooklyn Peak

About this map

Brooklyn Peak and the surrounding high country of the Tonto National Forest define this 1967 survey of Yavapai County. The landscape is marked by a network of pack trails and jeep tracks connecting isolated outposts such as Crockett Cabin, Wright Cabin, and the Six Bar Ranch. This region relies heavily on developed water sources for cattle and transit, evidenced by the numerous named tanks and springs like Hutch Tank, Cornstalk Flat Tank, and Sycamore Spring scattered across the complex terrain. The map captures an era when traditional ranching infrastructure, including the Wood Camp Cabin and Hogan Cabin, remained central to the management of these public lands. Significant elevations such as Goat Peak, Mesa Butte, and the high plateau of Hutch Mesa dominate the topography, illustrating the challenging environment for early Arizona settlers and foresters.
