About this map

The confluence of the Colorado River and Gunnison River anchors this 1970s view of Western Colorado, showing a region defined by extensive irrigation and the reach of the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad. The urban center of Grand Junction is surrounded by a complex network of waterways, including the Grand Valley Canal, Highline Canal, and Price Ditch, which facilitated the agricultural development of areas like Orchard Mesa and Appleton.
