1969 Map of Bumble Bee

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Bumble Bee sits at the heart of this late-1960s survey, a small settlement positioned between the eastern slopes of the Bradshaw Mountains and the elevated expanse of Black Mesa. The landscape is a complex network of deep drainages and mineral prospects, reflecting a long history of exploration in this corner of the Prescott National Forest. Evidence of hard-rock mining is scattered across the terrain, from the Howard Silver Mine and Howard Copper Mine to the Roosevelt Mine and Last Chance Mine near Turkey Creek. Transportation through these canyons evolved from the narrow Jeep Trails and Pack Trails that service interior landmarks like Castle Creek Cabin to the modern engineering of the Sunset Point Interchange along the primary highway corridor. Water sources such as Bill Arp Spring and Lower Dead Cow Spring appear as critical points of interest in this arid environment.
