1949 Map of Davis Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 1949

About this map

The Dolores River carves through this corner of Montrose County, where the United States Atomic Energy Commission and the USGS collaborated to document a landscape defined by uranium and vanadium extraction. The eastern portion of the map is dominated by a dense cluster of claims including the Tramp No 2 Mine, Vanadate Mine, and Coloradium Mine. These workings follow the geological contours above the Paradox Valley, connected by the winding Long Park Road.
