1972 Map of Sheep Basin Mtn.

About this map

The high ridges of the Sierra Ancha define this portion of the Tonto National Forest as it appeared in the early 1970s. This survey records a landscape shaped by ranching and small-scale mountain habitation, evidenced by the Fred Pranty Cabin and the presence of numerous livestock management sites like the Gun Creek Corral and Conway Corral. The reliance on seasonal water in this high-elevation terrain is clear from the network of named tanks, including Double Corral Tank and Coffeepot Tank, which supported the area's movement.
