1973 Map of Arinosa

About this map

The Western Pacific railroad cuts a straight horizontal line across this high-desert landscape in the early 1970s, serving as the primary corridor through a region dominated by salt and sediment. Located along these tracks is Arinosa, a point of interest for those studying the rail history of the Great Salt Lake Desert. The northern edge of the Wendover Air Force Range occupies the lower portion of the map, illustrating the intersection of military training grounds and commercial transport routes in Tooele County. The terrain is characterized by extensive Mud Flat areas, where subtle variations in surface texture are the primary features in an otherwise sparse environment. This orthophotomap provides a clear view of the land's actual surface as it appeared during 1972 aerial surveys, documenting the isolation of these remote rail sidings and military boundaries before modern developments.
