1955 Map of Ironton

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Mining operations and high-altitude transport define this mid-century survey of the San Juan Mountains. The landscape is dominated by the industrial legacy of the Silverton and Ouray districts, where the Million Dollar Highway winds past concentrated clusters of extraction sites. Dense mining activity is visible at settlements like Ironton, Guston, and Camp Bird, supported by an extensive network of pack trails and jeep trails that navigate the steep basins.
