The North Fork Gunnison River carves a critical industrial corridor through this section of the Gunnison National Forest. In the mid-1960s, the settlement of Somerset serves as a hub for local coal extraction, supported by the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad winding along the riverbank. This map documents a landscape of heavy resource extraction, evidenced by the Oliver Mine, Bear Mine, and the Oliver Power Plant.
