1982 Map of Garfield
USGS Topo · Published 1983About this map
High-altitude mining and recreation dominate this rugged landscape along the Continental Divide, where the border between Chaffee and Gunnison counties follows the crest of the Sawatch Range. Settled nodes like Garfield and Monarch are situated along the South Arkansas River, serving as base points for the industrial extraction visible at the Garfield Mine, Lily Mine, and various quarries. The Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad corridor provides the primary transport artery through the mountains, flanked by the San Isabel and Gunnison National Forests.
