1964 Map of Horse Mesa Dam

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Apache Lake winds through the heart of the Tonto National Forest in this mid-century topographical record. The engineering of the Horse Mesa Dam is a focal point, indicating the managed water systems critical to the Salt River Valley. The terrain is marked by significant vertical relief, from the sheer Painted Cliffs to the prominent Horse Mesa and Fish Creek Peak. For local history researchers, the map identifies isolated human imprints such as Adams Camp and the curious Browns Cave north of the lake. A network of pack trails and jeep trails crisscrosses the southern region, connecting remote landmarks like Black Cross Butte and Mesquite Flat, reflecting the area's use for recreation and land management before the expansion of modern road networks.
