1950 Map of Northgate

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The North Platte River carves a central path through this landscape, marking the rugged transition between the Routt National Forest and the Medicine Bow National Forest at the Colorado-Wyoming border. This 1950 field-checked survey reveals an era of active mining and water management, with the Fluorspar Mine, Camp Creek Mine, and Gero Tunnel Mine dotting the slopes of Pinkham Mountain. The industrial character of the region is further evidenced by the Union Pacific (Newport Branch) railroad, which served the small settlement at Northgate.
