1954 Map of Green River

About this map

Green River and the neighboring settlement of Elgin serve as the primary hubs in this mid-century survey, which focuses on the winding path of the Green River as it carves through the canyonlands of Emery and Grand Counties. The Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad tracks parallel the northern reaches of the river, connecting the area to larger transit networks. South of the town site, the landscape becomes increasingly dominated by intricate drainage systems such as Saleratus Wash and Browns Wash.
