1964 Map of Two Bar Mountain

About this map

Two Bar Ranch and Horrell Ranch anchor this mid-century survey of the high desert terrain along the Gila and Maricopa County line. The map reveals a landscape defined by seasonal water and cattle ranching within the Tonto National Forest. An intricate network of trails, jeep trails, and pack trails connects remote landmarks like Gunsight Gap and the geologic formations of Nonesuch Rocks. Local educational history is evidenced by the solitary Schoolhouse situated north of Two Bar Canyon. The drainage patterns of Campaign Creek and Pinto Creek dictate the movement across the slopes of Two Bar Mountain and Granite Mountain, reflecting the practical geographic realities for residents and land managers in the early 1960s.
