1961 Map of Woods Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The Mogollon Rim dominates this 1961 field-checked landscape, marking a sharp geological divide where the high plateau of the Sitgreaves National Forest drops toward the Tonto National Forest. Settlement in this era was defined by isolated outposts such as Dutch Joe Ranch, OW Ranch, and Tillman Ranch, many located near critical water sources like Chevelon Creek and Willow Springs. The map documents the early development of the Woods Canyon Lake Recreation Area, a primary focal point for high-country activity. Further south, the landscape transitions into the steep drainages of the Fort Apache Indian Reservation. Significant local landmarks include the Dutch Joe Lookout and the Military Sinkhole, alongside evidence of industry at the Rainbow Mines near the Heber Payson Highway.
