1964 Map of Horse Mesa Dam

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Apache Lake dominates this mid-1960s survey of the Salt River canyon, where the massive concrete structure of Horse Mesa Dam holds back the waters against the sheer walls of the Painted Cliffs. The landscape is a complex network of high desert plateaus and deep drainages within the Tonto National Forest, characterized by the prominent Horse Mesa and the wide expanse of Coronado Mesa. Local human activity is concentrated along the historic Apache Trail, which winds through the rugged terrain toward the Highway Dept Maintenance Yard and various designated picnic areas.
