1952 Map of Promontory Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Coconino National Forest and Tonto National Forest converge at the Mogollon Rim, where this 1952 survey documents a landscape of high timber and remote homesteads. The map illustrates a network of pioneer-era cattle operations and recreational sites along the rim's edge, notably the Zane Grey Lodge and the State Fish Hatchery. Significant local history is preserved at the Battle of Big Dry Wash Historic Marker, denoting the site of a 1882 conflict. Family names are deeply etched into the geography, seen in sites like Fred Haught Ranch, Kohl Ranch, and Christopher Ranch. The infrastructure reflects a rugged pastoral economy where trails like the Highline Trail and numerous tanks and springs, such as Schoolhouse Tank, provided essential water in a high-elevation environment dominated by deep drainages like Leonard Canyon and Dane Canyon.
