1949 Map of Gateway

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The Dolores River winds through a landscape of deep canyons and massive plateaus in this late 1940s survey conducted in cooperation with the United States Atomic Energy Commission. The small settlement of Gateway serves as the focal point near the confluence of the river and West Unaweep Creek, where a Gaging Sta monitors the waterway. The map captures the region during a period of intense geological interest, as evidenced by the presence of the Vanaking No 1 Mine and Mammoth Mine tucked into the steep drainages of Larsen Canyon and Bull Canyon.
