1967 Map of Tule Tubs

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The San Carlos Indian Reservation landscape is defined by the dramatic ascent of the Nantac Rim, where the desert floor gives way to the elevated Nantac Plateau. This 1967 survey captures a remote ranching and water-management network essential for livestock in the arid Southwest. A series of specialized water features, including Soldier Hole Tank, Arsenic Tank, and Pasture 5 Charco, are distributed across the broad expanse of Ash Flat. These improvements, along with Sunrise Well and Hooker Gap Well, trace the human effort to sustain cattle in a territory where natural springs like Tule Springs and the eponymous Tule Tubs are rare and vital resources. Navigation across this terrain in the late 1960s relied on a sparse network of a Jeep Trail and the Natanes Mts Trail, reflecting the area's isolation.
