1963 Map of Saliz Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Brushy Mountains and the Saliz Mountains dominate this 1963 survey of the high country within the Gila National Forest. The landscape is defined by a complex network of canyons and mesas, with Saliz Pass serving as a primary transit point. Evidence of ranching and early habitation is scattered throughout the drainages, including Martinez Ranch in the north and L Kelly Ranch near the San Francisco River in the southeast. Small-scale resource extraction and livestock management are indicated by the Saliz No 2 mine and various water improvements like Ribbon Tank, Willies Tank, and the humorously named Gut Ache Mesa Tank. A primitive Jeep Trail winds through the hills, connecting isolated outposts like Kelly Camp to the larger canyon systems of Pueblo Creek and Saliz Canyon.
