About this map

Sunnyside serves as the primary hub for this 1915 survey of the Book Cliffs region, situated at the mouth of Whitmore Canyon. The landscape is dominated by the steep elevation gains of Patmos Mountain and West Ridge, where a network of deep drainages like Spring Canyon and Water Canyon carve through the high plateaus. The arrival of the Denver and Rio Grande railroad through the lower valley is the defining industrial feature of the era, providing the necessary transport for the area's emerging resource extraction economy.
