About this map

The dramatic basalt caprocks of North Table Mountain and South Table Mountain dominate this western edge of the Denver metropolitan area. These massive landforms overlook the historic town of Golden, where the campus of the Colorado School of Mines is situated along the banks of Clear Creek. The transition from industrial extraction to high-technology research is evident across the landscape, with numerous claypits and gravel pits operating near modern facilities like the Environmental Technology Site on Rocky Flats and the Solar Energy Research Institute.
