About this map

Industrial operations along the North Fork Gunnison River dominate this landscape within the Gunnison National Forest. The settlement of Somerset serves as a central hub, where the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad tracks parallel the river to support local resource extraction. Evidence of the region's mid-century energy economy is visible through the Oliver Power Plant, a nearby Filtration Plant, and several active coal works including the Bear Mine, Oliver Mine, and Clark Mine.
