1960 Map of Rico

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Rico serves as the focal point of this mining-district survey, situated along the Dolores River at the base of Expectation Mountain. The landscape is heavily marked by the region's industrial heritage, with an extensive network of workings including the Enterprise Mine, Nora Lily Mine, and the Union Carbonate Mine dotting the slopes of Newman Hill and Sandstone Mountain. Transportation through this steep terrain is defined by an old railroad grade following the river and an aerial tram used for moving ore from high-altitude sites like the Sunflower Mine.
