About this map

Gateway serves as the primary gateway to the high plateau country of western Colorado, situated at the confluence of the Dolores River and Unaweep Canyon. The 1960 landscape is defined by its deep uranium and vanadium mining history, with numerous operations such as the Vanakin No 1 Mine, Liberty Bell No 2 Mine, and Stormy Treasure Mine scattered across the surrounding mesas. The sheer cliffs of The Palisade tower over the valley, while the rugged interior is marked by specialized outposts like Calamity Camp and Arrowhead Camp.
