1955 Map of Cameo

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The Colorado River carves a deep path through the high desert terrain of Mesa County, defining the industrial and agricultural character of this mid-century survey. At the southern end of De Beque Canyon, the small settlement of Cameo serves as a vital node for the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad, supported by a local Mine and the Cameo Siding. The landscape is a complex network of water management, featuring the Government High Line Canal and the Grand Valley Diversion Dam, which redirect the river's flow through tunnels and siphons to support the plateau above.
