1956 Map of Superstition Mts. SW

About this map

Dinosaur Mtn towers over the northern terrain of this Pinal County landscape, marking the transition from high relief to the alluvial plains below. The map documents a mid-century infrastructure corridor where a major power line, a telephone line, and a highway numbered 89 converge near Navajo Station. This convergence of utilities and transportation illustrates the strategic importance of the corridor south of the mountains during Arizona's post-war growth period. Along the southern edge, the course of Queen Creek winds through the desert floor, while local land use is reflected in features like the RRR Ranch, a Trailer Park, and scattered mining Shafts. Large swaths of land are designated as a Game Restoration Area, indicating a focus on conservation and wildlife management alongside early rural development.
