1979 Map of Colton

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Colton serves as the focal point for this high-altitude landscape where the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad navigates the winding canyon of the Price River. This late 1970s survey captures a transition point between the higher plateaus and the canyon country, marked by heavy industrial and recreational footprints. To the west, the Scofield Lake State Recreation Area provides a contrast to the extractive history suggested by the multiple Quarries and Prospects scattered near the rail line.
