1949 Map of Rockinstraw Mtn

About this map

The Salt River carves a dramatic path through the center of this 1947 aerial survey, winding past the Horseshoe Bend before meeting the eastern reaches of the Roosevelt Reservoir. The landscape is dominated by the complex terrain of the Tonto National Forest, characterized by numerous named peaks like Rockinstraw Mtn and Salt River Peak. Resource management and early environmental research are evident through the inclusion of the Sierra Ancha Experimental Forest in the north and two distinct outposts for forest oversight: the A-Cross Ranger Sta and the Alamo Ranger Sta. Historically, the Richmond Basin in the southeast corner marks an area of significant geologic and prospecting interest, while the numerous springs and washes, such as Sycamore Springs and Pringle Wash, reveal the vital water sources that dictated movement through this arid Gila County terrain.
