1965 Map of Bowie

About this map

The North Fork Gunnison River carves a path through this section of Delta County, where the industrial landscape of the mid-1960s meets the high country of the Gunnison National Forest. The settlement of Bowie and nearby Juanita Junction serve as focal points for local coal operations, connected to the wider world by the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad. Heavy industry is etched into the terrain through the presence of the Bowie Mine, Farmers Mine, and Converse Mine, illustrating the vital role of resource extraction in this canyon environment.
