      <marmot:placeNotes>A town in Mesa County, Colorado, near the border with Utah, that once served as the headquarters of the Uintah Railway, the transportation for a gilsonite mining enterprise, in the early 1900&#x2019;s. Along with Loma, Mack has also been a farm and ranch community.&#xD;
&#xD;
According to Jerome and Agnes Kiefer, who grew up there in the 1910's and 1920's, the town was very well kept, clean, and with a lawn near the hotel that held gatherings in the days when it was still a railroad town. It had two grocery stores, but no mercantile store, and people had to shop elsewhere for non-perishable goods.&#xD;
&#xD;
The town declined significantly in population after the closure of the Uintah Railroad. According to Jerome Kiefer, whose family were some of the first pioneers in the area, nearly everyone in town worked for the railroad.</marmot:placeNotes>
