About this map

Industrial activity along the North Fork Gunnison River centers on the settlement of Somerset, a key node for the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad in the mid-1960s. The map illustrates a landscape shaped by coal mining and water management, with the Bear Mine and Oliver Mine situated near the riverbanks. The Oliver Power Plant and Filtration Plant suggest the infrastructure required to support these operations and the surrounding Gunnison National Forest.
