1975 Map of Poland Junction

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Prescott National Forest serves as the backdrop for a landscape defined by its mining heritage and rugged topography in the mid-1970s. The Bradshaw Mountains and the flat-topped Big Bug Mesa dominate the terrain, separated by a complex network of canyons and gulches. The settlement of Walker and the transportation hub at Poland Junction are connected by remnants of the mining industry, most notably the Poland-Walker Tunnel. Numerous workings such as the Henrietta Mine, King Benjamin Mine, and Eugene Mine are scattered throughout the hills, many accompanied by dredge tailings along the watercourses. Water sources like Postmaster Spring and Grapevine Springs were vital in this arid environment, supporting both the mining operations and the scattered homesteads indicated by family-named landmarks like Chaparral and Ticonderoga.
