About this map

Mining activity and high-altitude settlements dominate the landscape of the San Juan Mountains in the years following the silver boom. The town of Creede serves as a central hub, connected by the Denver and Rio Grande railroad to outlying mining districts like Bachelor and Sunnyside. To the southwest, the remote Spar City sits near the Emma Mine, illustrating the reach of mineral exploration into the steep canyons.
