1969 Map of Sam Powell Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Mistake Mine and the Oro Grande Mine anchor the resource-driven landscape of this Yavapai County terrain. During the late 1960s, a network of jeep and pack trails navigated the arid environment between the Weaver Mountains and the Black Hills. The map details the hydrology of the Hassayampa River drainage, showing a Gaging Station and several ephemeral flows like Blue Tank Wash and Calamity Wash. Mining activity is evident through features such as the Sand Mill and numerous unnamed prospect pits. Significant landmarks like Sam Powell Peak and The Needle provide clear navigation points across the rugged gaps of Box Canyon and Fools Canyon. This survey captures the region just as local access was defined by rugged routes like Constellation Road.
