1970 Map of Show Low North

About this map

Sitgreaves National Forest dominates the landscape of this 1970 survey, where the Mogollon Rim's drainage patterns are clearly defined by Show Low Creek and its various tributaries. The town of Show Low is visible in the lower portion of the map, showing its mid-century footprint organized along Adams St and Cooley St, including the local cemetery and Rodeo Grounds. Public infrastructure and recreation are central to the area's development during this era, evidenced by the Show Low Municipal Airport and the establishment of the Fools Hollow Campground near the waters of Fools Hollow Lake. The map also documents historical transit points and land use, such as Roundy Crossing and Robinson Trail Crossing, alongside more modern additions like the Radio Tower (KVSL) and a developing Trailer Park.
