1908 Map of La Plata

USGS Topo · Published 1946

About this map

The Rio Grande Southern R. R. serves as the industrial backbone of this mountainous landscape, winding through the southern half of the quadrangle to connect high-altitude resource extraction points. Deep within the Montezuma National Forest, the map documents a robust mining economy, particularly in the northeast around the Cumberland Basin. Here, the Cumberland Mill and Columbus Mine operate amidst a cluster of peaks including Hesperus Peak and Mt. Moss.
