1916 Map of Castle Gate

About this map

Industrial expansion in the Carbon County coalfields defines this 1914 survey, which highlights the complex relationship between narrow canyon settlements and the vital rail corridors of the Price River. The map documents the early 20th-century coal economy through mining hubs like Standardville, Storrs, and Kenilworth, alongside the heavy industrial footprint of the Aberdeen Mine and Milburn Mine. The dramatic topography of the Book Cliffs and Castle Gate dictates the layout of the Denver and Rio Grande Railway and the Utah Railway, which snake through the steep terrain to reach these remote extraction sites.
