1947 Map of Sheridan Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Prescott National Forest encompasses most of this high-elevation terrain in Yavapai County, where ranching and rugged topography defined the landscape shortly after World War II. The area is characterized by massive tablelands like South Mesa, Cedar Mesa, and Sycamore Mesa, divided by a network of drainage systems including Sycamore Creek and the headwaters of the Santa Maria River. Isolated outposts like Yolo Cabin and the Muleshoe Ranch highlight the era's reliance on remote homesteads and cattle operations. A dense concentration of named peaks and basins, from Sheridan Mountain to the curiously named Bubby Buttes, provides a precise record of local nomenclature used by foresters and ranchers before the expansion of modern infrastructure. The map also details early transportation routes, such as the road toward Bagdad and the primitive track leading to Dumbbell Ranch.
