1954 Map of Green River

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

The Green River settlement serves as the central hub of this mid-century landscape, where the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad tracks cross the water near Elgin. This 1954 field-checked survey was produced in cooperation with the Atomic Energy Commission, reflecting the era's uranium prospecting and regional infrastructure development. The topography is defined by the winding course of the Green River, which carves through a labyrinth of canyon country marked by numerous drainages like Saleratus Wash, Browns Wash, and Ninemile Wash.
