1961 Map of Vulture Mountains

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Wickenburg serves as the primary hub for this arid landscape at the edge of the Aguila Valley, where the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railway runs parallel to the Hassayampa River. This region is defined by its deep mining heritage, anchored by the legendary Vulture Mine and dozens of smaller operations like the Sunrise Mine and Big Spar Mine. The map reveals a complex network of water management in a desert environment, with dozens of named tanks such as Cornelius Tank, Quail Tank, and Six-shooter Tank distributed to support cattle or mining operations.
