1967 Map of Date Creek Ranch NW

About this map

Tres Alamos Springs and the eastern slopes of the Black Mountains define this arid landscape in Yavapai County during the late 1960s. The terrain is marked by a network of drainage systems, including the prominent Date Creek and Bullard Wash, which reveal the hydrology of the high desert before modern expansion. Evidence of early resource exploration is scattered throughout the area, notably a Prospect located near the northern peaks and several water storage points such as Myers Tank and North Tank. Transportation in this era was limited to rugged paths like the Jeep Trail and the established Alamo Road, which follows a series of bench marks including BM 2342 and BM 2519. The map provides a clear look at the township and range boundaries that organized this remote Arizona territory.
