1993 Map of Camels Back Ridge SW

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

Dugway Proving Ground (Restricted Area) occupies a significant portion of this desert landscape in Tooele County, representing the intersection of military operations and the arid Great Basin environment. The terrain is defined by the striking geological features of Camels Back Ridge and Simpson Butte, surrounded by expansive areas of shifting Sand Dunes. This region is historically notable for the Old River Bed, a remnant of the prehistoric waterway that once flowed through the Sevier Desert and Bonneville Basin. Human activity in this remote sector is primarily industrial and military, evidenced by the Macintire Road, a remote Prospect, and a Gravel Pit. The map reflects a mid-20th-century landscape updated through the early 1990s, where traditional land uses like mining and early exploration trails meet modern restricted military zones.
