1964 Map of New River Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The high desert landscape of the Tonto National Forest is defined here by a series of prominent mesas and deep drainage networks. The western portion is dominated by the New River Mesa and the New River Mountains, while the eastern terrain rises toward Skull Mesa and Cramm Mountain. This area shows a pattern of early 1960s resource extraction and management, evidenced by the Ashdale Ranger Station and scattered mineral claims. Notable mining activity is centered in the southern canyons, with the Phoenix Mine and Maricopa Mine located near Cave Creek. The map documents a rugged interior accessible largely by a network of Jeep Trails, connecting isolated points like the Flemming settlement and various water sources such as Robbers Roost Spring and Quien Sabe Spring.
