1956 Map of Cinder Cone Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Cinder Cone Butte dominates the northern reaches of this mid-1950s landscape, providing a stark topographical anchor for an area heavily utilized for military training. The map documents a rugged high-desert environment where industrial and defense activities overlap, notably at the Cinder Pit near the butte and across the expansive National Guard Maneuver and Firing Area. Water management is critical in this arid terrain, as evidenced by the infrastructure at Fraser Reservoir and the associated Fraser Dam 3112 feeding into the local drainage system.
