1942 Map of Mt. Graham

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Fort Grant and the adjacent State Industrial School stand at the transition between the high peaks of the Pinaleño Mountains and the arid Sulphur Springs Valley. During the early 1940s, this landscape within the Coronado National Forest featured a network of specialized encampments and agriculture, including a CCC Camp, the Cluff Dairy, and the Angle Orchard Ranch. The high country is dominated by Mt. Graham and Heliograph Peak, accessed via the winding Swift Trail. Family-run ranching operations like the Moyer, Mills, and Pitchfork Ranch define the western foothills, while the Jernigan Ranch and Estes Ranch occupy the lower basins, illustrating the era's reliance on scattered springs and seasonal washes for livestock and settlement.
