About this map

Industrial activity and rugged terrain define this portion of the Colorado landscape in the early 1970s. The Energy Mine (Strip) and Edna Mine (Strip) dominate the northern and eastern sections of the map, illustrating the significant role of surface mining in the local economy. Supporting this industry is the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad, which winds through the hills alongside a Tipple used for loading coal.
