1966 Map of Canyon Day
USGS Topo · Published 1968About this map
Fort Apache Indian Reservation lands dominate this mid-1960s survey, defined by the winding course of the White River as it flows past the settlement of Canyon Day. The landscape is a mix of high plateau and deep canyons, marked by significant archaeological and historical landmarks like the Kinishba Ruins and the prominent Sevenmile Rim. This era of the reservation is recorded through its cattle-working infrastructure and water management, featuring numerous named tanks and wells such as Kinishba Well and Stockman Station. The survey captures the complex jurisdictional history of the area, clearly delineating the Old Indian School Boundary. Beyond the river valley, the terrain is characterized by distinctive formations including Sawtooth Mtn and Tsay-se-zhin Butte, while human activity is evidenced by scattered Gravel Pit sites and a Rifle Range.
