1964 Map of Red Picacho

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Mining operations dominate the arid slopes of the Wickenburg Mountains in the mid-1960s, a landscape defined by seasonal washes and a long history of mineral extraction. The boundary between Yavapai Co and Maricopa Co cuts through this terrain, where numerous small-scale claims like the Great Southern Mine, Midnight Owl Mine, and Little San Domingo Mine were active. These sites are linked by a network of unimproved trails and four-wheel-drive roads that follow the drainage patterns of San Domingo Wash and Trilby Wash. Landmarks such as Pechan Camp and the distinctive summit of Red Picacho provide orientation in a region where water sources like Tub Spring were vital to prospectors and ranchers alike. This map provides a detailed view of the infrastructure supporting the area's hard-rock and placer mining legacy.
