About this map

Verde River drainage and the northern reaches of Lonesome Valley define this landscape within the Prescott National Forest. The map documents a rugged water-management network essential for cattle ranching, featuring numerous catchment basins such as Robert E Tank, Muldoon Tank, and Gold Basin Tank. Historical human activity is marked by an Old Railroad Grade cutting across the southern plains and a set of Ruins situated near the river in the north. The presence of a Prospect near St Matthews Mtn indicates localized mineral exploration. This 1970s survey captures the region just as modern infrastructure, like the prominent Pipeline, began to cross the traditional canyon-and-basin terrain of Wildcat Draw and King Canyon.
