1967 Map of Point of Pines West

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Nan Tac Rim provides a massive topographical divide across this portion of the San Carlos Indian Reservation, separating the high San Carlos Plateau from the lower expanse of Ash Flat. This 1967 survey captures a landscape defined by significant elevation changes and seasonal water sources, including the Dry Lake and the Point of Pines Lake. Human presence is marked by diverse artifacts of the era and earlier, from a high-altitude Lookout Tower in the Natanes Mountains to an ancient Cliff Dwelling located near Barlow Pass. The map also details specific water and stock management points such as Arsenic Spring, Arsenic Tubs, and Headquarters Tank, illustrating the ranching and resource management necessities of this high-desert environment. Traces of travel are seen in the network of Trails and Jeep Trails that navigate the steep escarpments of the rim.
