1948 Map of Picketpost Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Tonto National Forest land dominates this 1948 field-checked landscape, where the rugged topography of the Superstition Mountains meets the industrial push of the Copper Triangle. The presence of the Magma Arizona RR and the Magma Arizona road network indicates the region's reliance on mineral extraction and transport during the post-war era. Notably, the map preserves the location of the Old Pinal Townsite along the banks of Queen Creek, a critical site for genealogists and local historians tracing the late 19th-century silver boom.
