1965 Map of McDowell Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Mc Dowell Mountains dominate this 1965 survey, forming a prominent spine that separates the developing desert floor from the protected wilderness of the Tonto National Forest. The landscape is a study in the transition between early mid-century resource extraction and the northward expansion of Scottsdale. Evidence of the area's prospecting history is visible through the Dixie Mine and various unnamed prospects scattered across the high ridges of Mc Dowell Peak and Thompson Peak.
