About this map

Ninetysix Hills dominate the northern landscape of this Pinal County region as it appeared in the mid-1960s. The terrain is defined by a network of drainage features like Brady Wash and Bogard Wash, which weave between the peaks and lower ranch lands. Cattle ranching remains the central activity of the area, evidenced by the presence of 96 Ranch and Coyote Ranch, alongside several water catchments such as Middle Tank, Bee Tank, and Lower Tank.

Transport and utility infrastructure cut across the desert floor, with Freeman Road and Barkerville Road providing primary access. A notable Pipeline runs through the central sections of the quadrangle, passing near Coyote Peak. For those interested in local history and land use, the map identifies a solitary Prospect and the community of Freeman, reflecting the sparse but purposeful settlement patterns of this arid landscape.
