About this map

The Colorado River corridor defines this 1920s landscape, serving as the primary artery for transport and development between Grand Valley and De Beque. This era marks a significant focus on resource extraction, evidenced by the large Naval Oil Shale Reserve and industrial outposts like American Shale Camp and Shale Camp. The Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad tracks the river's path, providing the critical link for these remote settlements.
