1964 Map of Red Picacho

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Mining operations and geological landmarks dominate the landscape of the Wickenburg Mountains and Hieroglyphic Mts in this mid-1960s survey. The area is defined by a heavy concentration of claims, reflecting the intense prospecting history of the Arizona desert. Notable sites include the White Cloud Mine, Independence Mine, and Great Southern Mine, which are scattered among prominent peaks like White Picacho and Red Picacho. The network of drainage systems, such as San Domingo Wash, Monarch Wash, and Trilby Wash, provides the primary navigational routes through the arid terrain. While the region lacks permanent settlements, the presence of Pechan Camp and numerous jeep trails suggests continued mineral exploration and seasonal activity. This record of lode mining and remote camps offers a clear picture of the region's industrial footprint before modern development patterns emerged.
