1964 Map of El Capitan Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Mining operations and rugged peaks define this 1964 survey of Gila County, where the Pinal Mountains and Mescal Mountains meet. The map documents an active mineral history through several named sites, including the Silver Creek Mine, El Capitan Mine, and the Vanadium Mine near the southern border. These extraction points are connected by a network of jeep trails and older trails that wind through the steep drainage of El Capitan Canyon. The northeastern portion of the sheet transitions into the San Carlos Ind Res, while landmarks like Stone Cabin Mtn and Pasadera Mtn provide essential topographic orientation. The presence of features such as Trap Corral and a Cabin in the northwest suggests cattle ranching occurring alongside the region's deep-rooted prospecting efforts during the mid-20th century.
