1964 Map of Copper Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Sierra Ancha dominates this mid-1960s landscape, where high peaks and deep canyons define the cattle-and-wilderness character of the Tonto National Forest. Settlement is sparse, represented by working operations like the T Slash X Ranch and J-R Ranch, which are connected to the wider world by a remote landing strip and a network of jeep and pack trails. The landscape is dotted with water improvements essential for ranching in this arid environment, including Indian Camp Reservoir, Headquarters Pasture Tank, and Elephant Corral Spring. Land use at this time was a mix of grazing and exploration, evidenced by a prospect near Copper Mountain and the Dupont Cabin tucked into the headwaters of Dupont Canyon. The topography ranges from the high flats of Buckaroo Flats to the dramatic descent into Hells Hole along Workman Creek.
