About this map

Dugway Proving Ground (Restricted Area) dominates the landscape, illustrating the intersection of natural isolation and specialized human activity in the late 20th century. The settlement at English Village serves as a primary hub within this secure zone, supported by facilities like the Rodeo Grounds, Rifle Range, and a designated Experimental Area. The topography is defined by the sharp transition between the Cedar Mountains and a massive expanse of Sand Dunes to the west.

Prominent peaks such as Little Granite Mountain and Little Davis Mountain rise abruptly from the basin floor. Local infrastructure is sparse but purposeful, with Stark Road and Durand Road providing access across the arid terrain. Natural drainage is limited, evidenced by the path of Government Creek through the southern sections. This survey provides a precise record of the base's operational layout during a period of active utilization.
