About this map

Sierra Ancha and the Pinal Mountains dominate this 1950s Gila County landscape, where the Salt River carves a deep, winding path across the central terrain. This era of land management is represented by the Experimental Forest in the north and the operations at the A-Cross Ranger Sta and Alamo Ranger Sta. A distinct change in the river's utility is visible at Inspiration Dam (Aband), while further downstream, the Horseshoe Bend and the Spillway Gate at the Roosevelt Reservoir show early water control infrastructure.
