1960 Map of Gateway

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The Dolores River carves a deep path through the high plateaus of western Colorado in this 1960 survey, a landscape defined by industrial extraction and dramatic geology. The small settlement of Gateway serves as the primary hub in this canyon-dominated terrain, where the mesa-top economies of the mid-20th century are clearly visible. Uranium and vanadium mining activity is concentrated on Tenderfoot Mesa and Outlaw Mesa, evidenced by numerous operations like the Black Mama No 3 Mine and the Liberty Bell No 2 Mine.
