1965 Map of Bowie

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The North Fork Gunnison River corridor serves as the industrial and agricultural heart of this mid-century Colorado landscape. The Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad tracks parallel the river, connecting the mining settlement of Bowie to Juanita Junction. This region's economy in the 1960s is clearly defined by coal extraction and water management, evidenced by the Bowie Mine and Farmers Mine alongside a network of irrigation works like the Farmers Ditch and Stewart DITCH.
