1967 Map of Fritz Canyon

About this map

The Blue River carves a central path through this section of the Apache National Forest, where isolated cattle ranching and rugged drainage systems define the landscape. Small outposts of human activity are centered at Fritz Ranch and Stacy Ranch, with a solitary Grave recorded nearby, indicating the long-standing, sparse settlement of this canyon country. The terrain is marked by numerous water-retention features vital for livestock, such as Piñon Mtn Tank, Wild Bunch Tank, and White Bluff Tank.
