An interesting snapshot of the Verde River corridor from just south of Camp Verde to present-day Horseshoe Reservoir, including Fossil Creek, the New River Mountains, and the Mazatzal Mountains, with numerous historic travel routes, mines, and placenames. This is a 1929 edition of the Turret Peak quadrangle, printed in 1962 at a scale of 1:125,000, based on field survey work done in 1928 and 1929 by geographer W.G. Carson. Covering roughly 29 by 35 miles about 60 miles north of Phoenix, the quad area spans parts of four counties and takes in portions of the Tonto, Prescott, and Coconino national forests along with the small communities of Dugas and nearby Pine and Strawberry.

FEATURES SHOWN ON THE MAP
The Turret Peak 30-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 1928 and 1929.

A VALUABLE HISTORICAL RECORD
Maps from the USGS 30-minute series have been out of print for many years. They have never been common and original prints are increasingly difficult to find. For areas where the 30-minute map was produced, it is usually the first large-scale survey done by the USGS for that area. These are a valuable historical record, as they contain many placenames and features that have been dropped from more recent series’ and editions.
