About this map

The settlement of Wagoner serves as a focal point in this high-elevation landscape within the Prescott National Forest. The topography is defined by the Hassayampa River and its numerous tributaries, including Arrastre Cr and Milk Cr, which have carved deep drainage patterns through the McAllister Range and Wild Horse Mesa. This survey documents a complex network of springs, such as Moonshiner Spring, Cameron Spring, and Thousand Spring, which were vital for ranching and mining operations in the arid Arizona interior.

Local landmarks like Sugarloaf Mtn and Seal Mtn rise above significant depressions and canyons, notably Jesus Canyon and the curiously named The Hole. Roadways like W Wagner Rd and P7 Ranch Rd trace the historical movement between remote ranch outposts and settlements like Campbells Flat. The naming conventions found here—from Dead-Mexican Cr to Fools Canyon—provide a glimpse into the diverse and sometimes harsh experiences of the early settlers and prospectors who moved through this portion of Yavapai County.
