1949 Map of Uravan

USGS Topo · Published 1949

About this map

Uravan and its surrounding canyonlands appear here at a pivotal moment in the mid-20th century, with the joint involvement of the United States Atomic Energy Commission signaling the area's industrial importance. The landscape is dominated by the deeply carved path of the San Miguel River, which serves as the primary geographic corridor for the local mining economy. Strategic extraction points such as the Club Mines, Black Dinah Mine, and Long Park No 6 Mine are scattered across the mesas, connected by a network of primitive roads and a prominent Truck Trail.
