1972 Map of Dane Canyon

About this map

The Mogollon Rim escarpment dominates this 1970s survey, marking the dramatic geological boundary between the Coconino National Forest and the Tonto National Forest. This high-altitude landscape is defined by a dense network of ridges and canyons, such as Dane Canyon and Leonard Canyon, which serve as critical drainage systems for the plateau. The map identifies the Battle of Big Dry Wash Historical Marker, commemorating the 1882 conflict, alongside remote outposts like the Buck Springs Guard Station and the Holder Cabin (Site). Water sources are essential in this environment, as seen in the numerous named springs including General Springs and McClintock Spring. Pack trails and early infrastructure, such as the Highline Trail and a Telephone Line, illustrate how these lands were managed and navigated before the expansion of modern road systems.
