1964 Map of Granite Reef Dam

About this map

The confluence of the Verde River and the Salt River serves as the central focal point of this arid landscape on the edge of the Tonto National Forest. Water infrastructure is critical to the region's character, as evidenced by the Arizona Canal, the South Canal, and a prominent Aqueduct system designed to move water through the desert heat. Historic landmarks like the Camp Reno Historical Marker and the Jim Hart Memorial Monument mark the presence of early settlers and frontier history, while the complex borders of the Fort Mc Dowell Indian Reservation Boundary and Salt River Indian Reservation Boundary intersect at the riverbanks. Rising sharply from the valley floor, landmarks such as Mount McDowell and Apache Peak provide a dramatic contrast to the active recreation sites at Coon Bluff Forest Camp and the Phon D Sutton Recreation Area.
