1964 Map of Horseshoe Dam

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Verde River winds through the heart of the Tonto National Forest in this mid-1960s study, anchored by the critical water infrastructure of Horseshoe Dam. This arid landscape is punctuated by essential water sources for cattle and wildlife, including J M Spring, St Clair Spring, and Indian Spring. The map documents a period of multi-use land management where ranching, represented by the K A Ranch, exists alongside outdoor recreation at the Recreation Area and industrial utility markers like the Gaging Station and Water Tank. Cultural history is noted by the presence of Petroglyphs near a river bend, while the transportation network consists primarily of an unpaved Landing Strip and numerous Jeep Trails cutting through the mountainous terrain between St Clair Mountain and Indian Butte. Topography is further defined by the spillway elevations of Horseshoe Reservoir and Bartlett Reservoir.
