This USGS 15-minute topographic map is a 1961 edition printed in 1982, in very good condition on thick stock, lightly handled and never folded. Covering an area of the Mogollon Rim country in Navajo County, Arizona, the quad takes in the community of Heber-Overgaard and includes portions of the Sitgreaves National Forest and the Fort Apache Indian Reservation. The Mogollon Rim gives this sheet its character, marking the edge of the high country where the Colorado Plateau drops away toward central Arizona. It comes from the vintage map collection of Art Christiansen of Tempe, Arizona.

FEATURES SHOWN ON THE MAP
The Heber 15-minute map shows cities and towns, roads, railroads, utilities and energy infrastructure, rivers, creeks, elevation contour lines, public land survey lines, county, state, and other administrative boundaries as they existed at the time of the survey in 1960 and 1961. All known structures (houses, businesses, churches, schools, barns, cabins, etc) are also shown.

A VALUABLE HISTORICAL RECORD
Maps from the 15-minute series for the continental United States are no longer produced or printed by the USGS and original prints are becoming increasingly difficult to find. They are a valuable historical record for an area, as they contain many placenames and features that have been dropped from more recent maps.
