1944 Map of Mingus Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The copper mining hub of Jerome anchors the northern slopes of Mingus Mountain, overlooking a landscape defined by 1940s industrial extraction and high-desert ranching. This mid-century survey captures the region's intense mineral history, with numerous workings like the Iron King Mine and Copper Chief Mine dotting the ridges of the Prescott National Forest. To the south, the settlement of Cherry and the Yarber Sch represent the more isolated pockets of residency, while Humboldt and Dewey sit along the Agua Fria River and the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad corridor. The presence of facilities like Clemenceau Airport and the Yaeger Canyon Ranger Sta illustrates the infrastructure required to manage these diverse forest and mineral lands during the war years.
