1949 Map of Circle Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The rugged high-desert landscape of Circle Mesa and the surrounding Gila National Forest comes into sharp focus during this 1949 field check. The area is defined by the drainage system of Mangas Creek, which runs through the southwestern portion of the sheet parallel to Route 260. Human activity is primarily centered on isolated cattle ranching operations, with several family-named landmarks such as Allison Ranch and Sherman Ranch positioned near canyon mouths or reliable water sources like Dud Tank.
