1957 Map of Saint Johns

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Saint Johns serves as the focal point for this mid-century survey of the high desert and mountain frontier along the Arizona-New Mexico border. The landscape is defined by the Little Colorado River and its various tributaries, which supported early ranching and agriculture in settlements like Springerville, Eagar, and Concho. The era's transportation network is anchored by the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad corridor following U. S. 66 through Holbrook. Significant geological and cultural landmarks are prominently featured, including the Petrified Forest National Monument and the isolated Zuni Salt Lake. Large tracts of land are managed under the Apache National Forest and the Sitgreaves National Forest, alongside the Fort Apache Indian Reservation and Zuni Indian Reservation. This map captures the region's character as a crossroads of indigenous lands, federal forests, and small valley towns during a period of steady growth.
