1986 Map of Indian Peak

About this map

Prescott National Forest dominates this Yavapai County landscape, revealing a complex network of high-elevation peaks and seasonal water sources in the mid-1980s. The topography is defined by prominent elevations such as Williams Mtn, Indian Peak, and the broad expanse of Juniper Mesa. This survey serves as a vital record of livestock and land management infrastructure, documenting numerous named tanks and springs essential for life in this arid environment, including Fritche Tank, Triangle U Tank, and Indian Springs. Drainage patterns are clearly marked by the winding courses of Walnut Creek and Apache Creek. One of the most distinctive geomorphic features is the depression known as The Sinks, located east of the central peaks, which suggests the presence of underlying limestone or volcanic activity common to this portion of the Arizona transition zone.
