About this map

Hawley Lake serves as a primary landmark in this late-1970s view of the Fort Apache Indian Reservation. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of water features and high-elevation landforms, including the recreational waters of Christmas Tree Lake and Earl Park Lake. The map reveals a land managed for both conservation and community use, notably indicated by the Paradise Park Youth Camp and several designated picnic areas.

Transport through the high country relies on a system of Jeep Trails that navigate past natural features like Maverick Cienega and across the prominent Aspen Ridge. This survey, updated with assistance from the Bureau of Indian Affairs, documents the complex hydrology of the region, from the Beaver Dams on Star Creek to the headwaters of the East Fork White River, providing a clear record of the area's geography before later development.
