1929 Map of Grand Valley

About this map

The Colorado River carves a deep path through the Western Slope in the late 1920s, serving as the primary corridor for the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad. This industrial and agricultural lifeline connects the town of Grand Valley in the northeast to De Beque in the southwest, passing small sidings and stops like Una and Kobe. The landscape is defined by extreme verticality, with the Book Plateau rising to the north and the heavily timbered Grand Mesa National Forest dominating the southern reaches.
