1955 Map of Hunt

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Little Colorado River and Zuni River converge in this high-desert landscape of Apache County, where water sources dictated the patterns of early settlement and transportation. Evidence of the region's historical transit is marked by the Old Mail Station, situated along the western draws that lead toward the river valley. The small community of Hunt sits at a central crossing, supported by neighboring outposts like the Hutchinson Ranch and Greer Place. The terrain is defined by dramatic volcanic features and mesas, including the prominent Potter Mesa to the north and the dark basaltic expanse of Black Ridge in the south. Notable alkaline and seasonal water bodies such as Soda Lake and Stinking Springs provide distinct landmarks among the various washes like Beaver Dam Wash and Surprise Creek, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Colorado Plateau in the mid-1950s.
