1969 Map of Weaver Peak

About this map

The Weaver Mountains define this high-altitude landscape in Yavapai County, where steep slopes and winding drainages converge on prominent summits like Weaver Peak and Ritter Peak. This late 1960s survey documents a region defined by its mineral prospects and rugged topography, with numerous industrial sites scattered through the canyons. The presence of the Monte Cristo Mine, Buckhorn Mine, and Cuba Mine indicates the persistent legacy of lode mining in the interior range. A network of primitive Jeep Trails provides the primary access to these remote locations, connecting landmarks such as Rocky Boy Peak with water sources like Childers Well and the seasonal flows of Poplar Wash. The mapping of Uslm 2393 underscores the importance of official mineral land monuments for staking and surveying claims in this active mining district.
