About this map

The Mogollon Rim drops sharply through the center of this 1970s survey, marking the transition from the high plateau of the Sitgreaves National Forest into the deeply incised canyons of the Fort Apache Indian Reservation. Settlements like Pinetop and the Hon Dah Homesite are clustered near the northern edge, where the Pinetop Lakes Country Club and Rodeo Grounds reflect the area's mid-century recreational development.

Further south, the landscape is defined by traditional land use and cattle operations, evidenced by the Cooley Ranch, Pettit Ranch, and isolated landmarks like the Penrod Cabin. The complex hydrology of the rim is captured through numerous family-named water sources, including Cooley Spring and First Hollow Spring, while the industrial footprint of the era is noted at several Cinder Pit locations and the RR Sta near the forest boundary.
