1964 Map of Red Picacho

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Wickenburg Mountains and the northern edge of the Hieroglyphic Mts dominate this mid-1960s desert landscape, marked by a dense concentration of hard-rock mining operations across the border of Yavapai and Maricopa counties. Mining claims and mineral prospects are found along nearly every major drainage, including the Great Southern Mine and the Monarch Mine. The map shows a network of jeep trails providing access to isolated camps and landmarks such as Pechan Camp and Quince. Extensive dry washes like San Domingo Wash, Trilby Wash, and Monarch Wash cut through the terrain, illustrating the hydrological patterns of the Sonoran Desert. The presence of numerous United States Land Monuments, such as Uslm 1307 and Uslm 1494, indicates the historical importance of the mineral surveys in this rugged mining district.
