1973 Map of Arinosa SE

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Wendover Air Force Range dominates this landscape in the early 1970s, illustrating the intersection of military utility and the austere environments of the western deserts. Located in Tooele County, the terrain is characterized by a massive expanse of Mud Flat, a topographical feature that provided a naturally level and expansive surface suitable for aviation and ordnance testing. To the east, the topography shifts slightly as Sand Dunes appear, breaking the uniformity of the flats. This orthophotomap, based on 1972 aerial photography, provides a rare visual record of the physical state of the range during the Cold War era. The absence of traditional settlements or infrastructure highlights the isolation of this high-desert basin, where the primary human presence was defined by the requirements of the Department of the Interior and military operations.
