1964 Map of Garfias Mountain

About this map

St Anthony Mine and the Big Reef Mill stand as markers of industrial activity in this high desert landscape during the early 1960s. The topography is defined by the intersection of the Buckhorn Mountains and the Hieroglyphic Mountains, a region carved by seasonal drainages such as Bitter Creek and Garfias Wash. This survey documents a transition between Yavapai and Maricopa counties, where remote ranching outposts like H L Ranch depended on scattered water sources including Rincon Spring and Cedar Basin Tank. The network of Jeep Trails and pack trails winding through the Shirttail Hills and past Pikes Peak illustrates the era's reliance on rugged transport for mining and livestock management in the desert interior.
