Residents of Nucla “do have this really strong attachment to their culture and their history”, Cooper said. Over the years, she’s come to believe that attachment is mixed with shame. The history of Nucla “is not taught in schools, it’s not shared ... There’s a conflict of being both ashamed and being proud of it – and I think in some ways that is what has really kept that community from discovering what’s next for them if it’s not uranium.” Naturita is a small town the sits nestled between some of the largest outdoor recreation areas (Telluride and Moab, UT) in Southwest Colorado. Naturita’s name is derived from Spanish meaning “little nature.” What began as a vibrant ranching community along the San Miguel River, Naturita later became a supply center for nearby mines during the mining boom in Colorado. Founded in 1881 Naturita was once the epicenter for uranium mining, but now boasts some of the best year-round outdoor activities you can find in the U.S. and is a great place to start your outdoor adventures. From here, it is easy to hunt, fish, Jeep, ATV/dirt bike, mountain bike, camp, hike, paddleboard, snowmobile and more! Thomas and her family now live just down the road in Nucla, a shrinking rural town still dependent on the mining industry. As an alternative to uranium, Telluride residents repeatedly suggested that Nucla and Naturita capitalize on the organic local food movement and return to their farming roots to provide Telluride and surrounding areas with produce, Cooper said. a b "Interim Geologic Map of the Escalante 30' x 60' Quadrangle, Garfield and Kane Counties, Utah" (PDF).

The town lies off the highway; it is not on the way to anywhere. Miller, who runs an Airbnb in her house, said the guests she gets stay for just one night, stopping over on their way somewhere else. Many of the residents were no strangers to the boom-bust cycle of the mining industry. It’s always been boom and bust, they told me, for the past hundred years. Sharon Johannsen, Jane Thompson’s sister, had been forced to leave town during a mining slump. Her family had only been able to return many years later, but her husband was now working at the coal mine that was slated to be closed. Dawson, John Frank (1954).
