1974 Map of Cleator

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Mining operations and water infrastructure define this mid-1970s landscape within the Prescott National Forest. The settlement of Cleator sits near the confluence of several seasonal drainages, including Turkey Creek and Crazy Basin Creek, where the local economy once relied heavily on mineral extraction. An Old Railroad Grade winds through the terrain, serving as a reminder of the historical transport network that once connected remote camps like the Blue Bell Mine and Jubilee Mine to the outside world. To the south and east, numerous claims such as the Golden Belt Mine, Golden Turkey Mine, and French Lilly Mine are documented alongside specialized infrastructure like the Landing Strip near Cordes. The reliance on water in this arid environment is evident from the distribution of features like Dripping Spring, Blanchard Spring, and several remote water tanks.
