2004 Map of Picketpost Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 2007

About this map

Picketpost Mountain dominates the southern landscape of this Pinal County quadrangle, a region defined by its transition from the town of Superior into the expansive Tonto National Forest. The map documents a blend of early 20th-century botanical preservation and historic settlement patterns, most notably the Boyce Thompson Arboretum situated near the Queen Creek Bridge. Researchers will find significant historical evidence in the Old Pinal Townsite, alongside several remote outposts including Hewitt Station, Queens Station, and Millsite Headquarters. The desert terrain is marked by numerous vital water sources like Benson Spring and Millsite Spring, which supported the area's ranching and mining activities. Industrial traces are scattered throughout, with a Quarry and multiple labeled prospects indicating the mineral-rich nature of the mountains near Roblas Butte. This 2004 revision integrates modern planimetry with topography originally compiled in 1945, showing the persistent road and Telephone Line networks through the rugged Picketpost area.
