Gunnison, CO: Gunnison River supply and rail town

BOTTLE DIGGING GRAY AREA CONFIRMED

Where: Colorado · approx. 38.55, -106.93 (vicinity only)

Why this spot: 1880s+ Sanborn-mapped town on Gunnison River

What turns up: 1880s to 1900s saloon, druggist, brewery and soda bottles and hotel china in privies and river-bottom fill behind the original commercial blocks

Access: Gray area.

The Gunnison townsite is private and the Gunnison River bed is not open to public digging, so consent from the adjacent landowner is needed; the surrounding basin is a patchwork of BLM and private land subject to the federal antiquities restriction.
