1955 Map of Howardsville

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Howardsville and Middleton stand as the primary settlement hubs in this mid-century look at the San Juan Mountains, a landscape defined by an intensive network of mining claims. The high-elevation terrain is marked by a concentration of active and legacy extraction sites, including the Pride of the West Mine and the Silver Lake Mine, which were instrumental to the region's industrial development. The South Fork Animas River cuts through the western portion of the sheet, while the Continental Divide forms a natural spine across the east, separating the Gunnison and San Juan National Forest lands.
