About this map

Cortez sits at the foot of the Cortez Mountains in this 1938 survey of Lander and Eureka counties. The landscape is defined by the extraction economy of the mid-20th century, centered on the Cortez Mine and the Mill Canyon Mine. The rugged topography is interspersed with isolated signs of settlement, including the Mill Canyon Sch and remote dwellings like Francis Cabin and Rock House.
