1966 Map of Cone Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Fort Apache Indian Reservation and San Carlos Indian Reservation divide this high-desert landscape in the mid-1960s, defined by a complex network of seasonal springs, gaging stations, and livestock watering tanks. The topography is dominated by the namesake Cone Butte and the rugged drainage of Cedar Creek, which is bridged at the Cedar Creek Crossing. This era of land management is evidenced by the numerous named water sources such as Bad Luck Spring, Wild Bull Spring, and Trailer House Spring, alongside infrastructure like the R-14 Ranch and several Diversion Dams. The map captures a transition in water management, showing both natural Seasonal Springs and constructed catchments like Cemetery Tank, Apache Pond No 1, and Sam Green Tank, reflecting the vital importance of water rights and livestock grazing across these reservation lands.
