1949 Map of Gateway

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Gateway occupies a strategic bend where West Creek meets the Dolores River, serving as a central point in this late-1940s landscape of high mesas and deep canyons. The presence of the United States Atomic Energy Commission in the margin points to the era's intensifying interest in uranium mining, reflected on the ground by the Tenderfoot Camp and the Mammoth Mine located along the eastern slopes.
