1973 Map of Arinosa NE

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Mud Flat terrain dominates this 1970s orthophotomap of the Arinosa NE quadrangle, where the stark geography of the Great Salt Lake Desert meets military and industrial infrastructure. The sprawling Wendover Air Force Range occupies the southern reaches of the sheet, reflecting the region's long-standing role as a site for aerospace testing and defense operations. Bisecting the northern portion of the landscape, the Western Pacific railroad provides a straight-line contrast to the shifting, organic patterns of the salt crust and sediment. This map captures a specific moment in the land management of western Utah, documented through 1972 aerial photography that reveals the intricate textures of the basin floor often invisible on traditional line-drawn topographic maps.
