1971 Map of Rattlesnake Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Industrial extraction and high-elevation ranching define this portion of Routt County in the early 1970s. The massive Energy Mine (Strip) dominates the northern landscape, supported by a tipple and the winding tracks of the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad. This industrial activity contrasts with the rural educational infrastructure shown at Foidel Sch and Trout Creek Sch, which served the local families working the land and mines.
