1964 Map of Pinal Peak

About this map

The Pinal Mountains dominate this 1964 survey, centered on the high elevations of Tonto National Forest. Rising toward Pinal Peak, the landscape is defined by a network of steep drainages such as Icehouse Canyon, Sixshooter Canyon, and Kellner Canyon. Mining activity is evident throughout the terrain, with sites like the Azurite Mine, Westlake Mine, and Harvey Mine marking the mountain slopes. The presence of the Southwest Archeological Center (Gila Pueblo) near the northeast corner suggests the deep cultural history of the area.
