1954 Map of Dugway Proving Ground NW

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The Dugway Proving Ground dominates this 1954 topographic record, illustrating the remote and specialized nature of this Tooele County military landscape during the early Cold War. The terrain is characterized by expansive flatlands and intermittent drainage patterns, notably the large Dry Lake feature in the southern portion of the quadrangle. Transportation across this restricted territory is limited to a sparse network of designated routes, including Goodyear Road, Stark Road, and Falconer Road. The map provides a clear look at the surveying and infrastructural layout of the proving grounds before subsequent decades of development, capturing the stark, functional geometry of military land management in the Utah desert.
