1969 Map of Columbia

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Columbia sits at the heart of this late-1960s survey, surrounded by a high density of mining claims and desert settlements in Yavapai County. The landscape is defined by the sharp relief of the Bradshaw Mountains and the Gila and Salt River Meridian, where the economy of the era is etched into the terrain through numerous extraction sites. Gold-seekers and local historians can trace operations at the Red Star Mine, Lunan Mine, and Pero Bonito Mine, while the presence of the Cem and Champie Sch near Champie Ranch indicates a developed community structure. Notable historical sites like Fort Tule (Site) and infrastructure such as the Allen Mill Well provide a look at the region's development. The network of Humbug Creek and French Creek provides the primary drainage for this arid region, punctuated by seasonal water sources like Yellow Jacket Spring and Rockwall Spring.
