About this map

Nevada Proving Grounds and the surrounding high desert terrain dominate this mid-century survey of the Nye County landscape. The map captures a pivotal era of federal activity, showing the expansion of the Gunnery and Bombing Range across the Shoshone Mountain area and the development of the Mercury Highway. In the eastern flats, Yucca Flat and Yucca Lake appear alongside an Aban'd Landing Strip and a Landing Strip, hinting at the region's rapid aeronautical and military evolution.
