    Description:
      Abstract:
        >This data set covering the western part of Colorado includes water quality data
        >from eight different sources (points), nine U.S. Geological Survey Digital Raster
        >Graph (DRG)files for topographic bases, a compilation of Tertiary age intrusions
        >(polygons and lines), and a raster layer showing areas of hydrothermally altered rock.
        >These data were compiled for use with an ongoing mineral resource assessment of the
        >Grand Mesa, Uncompahgre, and Gunnison National Forests (GMUG)and intervening Bureau
        >of Land Management(BLM)lands. This compilation was assembled to give federal land
        >managers a preliminary view of water within sub-basinal areas, and to show possible
        >relationships to Tertiary age intrusions and areas of hydrothermal alteration.
      Purpose:
        >These data were compiled for use with an ongoing mineral
        >resource assessment of the Grand Mesa, Uncompahgre, and Gunnison National
        >Forests (GMUG) and intervening Bureau of Land Management (BLM) lands.
