1965 Map of Wildcat Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Browns Ranch stands as a focal point in this 1960s survey of the high desert northeast of Phoenix. The landscape is defined by the transitions between prominent peaks such as Wildcat Hill, Granite Mountain, and Fraesfield Mountain, all set within the expansive reach of the Tonto National Forest. Water management is a critical theme, evidenced by numerous isolated water resources including Bootlegger Tank, Black Hill Tank, and the winding course of Blue Wash. A network of jeep trails provides the primary means of traversal through this arid terrain, connecting scattered prospects that suggest historical mining interest in the area. The map also records modern infrastructure of the era, such as a prominent Radio Tower situated on a high point, alongside traditional ranching features, reflecting the multi-use nature of the public land during this period of Arizona's development.
