1967 Map of Wet Bottom Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Verde River carves a winding path through this central Arizona landscape, forming a natural boundary between Yavapai and Gila Counties. Within the protected reaches of the Tonto National Forest and the Mazatzal Wilderness, the terrain is defined by dramatic geological features such as Mule Shoe Bend and the flat-topped Wet Bottom Mesa. This 1967 field-checked survey highlights a transition from water-carved canyons to high mesas like Petes Cabin Mesa and the Limestone Hills. Human presence is minimal, marked primarily by a network of trails and a remote Landing Strip near Red Creek. The map documents essential water sources for cattle and wildlife in this arid environment, including Peach Tank, Table Mtn Tank, and various unnamed springs, reflecting the region's history of ranching and early backcountry aviation.
