USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Silver Pick Mine and the San Bernardo Mine anchor a landscape defined by high-altitude extraction during the early 1950s. This survey, produced in cooperation with the Atomic Energy Commission, highlights the industrial infrastructure of the San Miguel Mountains, featuring an Aerial Tramway and the Matterhorn Drifts. The presence of the Butterfly Mine (Active) near Ames contrasts with the Coal Mine (Aband) found further south toward the Dolores River.
