1958 Map of Cisco

About this map

The Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad corridor dominates the high desert landscape of Grand County, where the settlement of Cisco serves as a vital infrastructure hub during the late 1950s. This survey, conducted in coordination with the United States Atomic Energy Commission, reflects an era of intense resource exploration, marked by numerous Oil and Gas Wells and the Cactus Rat Mine south of The Poison Strip. The rugged topography transitions from the high Dome Plateau and The Highlands down to the confluence of the Colorado River and Dolores River. Along the riverbanks, family-run operations like Gordon Ranch, Wolverton Ranch, and Cato Ranch occupy fertile pockets such as McGraw Bottom and Hotel Bottom. The presence of the Dewey Bridge and a nearby Gaging Station highlights the importance of river crossings and water management in this arid reach of eastern Utah.
