1972 Map of Tripp Canyon

About this map

Coronado National Forest lands dominate this high-desert territory within the Pinaleno Mountains of Graham County. In the early 1970s, this landscape was defined by an extensive network of water management features, including numerous livestock tanks like the Dry Lake Stock Tank and Two Troughs Spring Tank, which supported ranching in an arid environment. The map details a rugged drainage system where Tripp Canyon and Underwood Wash cut through the terrain, alongside historic routes such as the Bellows Trail and Taylor Canyon Trail. For researchers, the inclusion of a single Grave near a Water Tank and the site of Lindsey provides specific points of interest for local history. The presence of a Gaging Station on Cottonwood Creek further highlights the critical monitoring of water resources in this part of Arizona.
