1965 Map of Bowie

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The North Fork Gunnison River carves a critical industrial corridor through this portion of Delta County, where the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad follows the valley floor to serve the local coal mining operations. The settlement of Bowie and the nearby Juanita Junction represent the heart of this activity, supported by landmarks such as the Bowie Mine and a cableway crossing the river. The topography is defined by high mesas and peaks, including Lennox Mesa and Jumbo Mountain, which overlook a complex network of agricultural water management systems like the Farmers Canal and Stewart Ditch.
