1954 Map of Dugway Proving Ground NW

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Dugway Proving Ground dominates this 1954 topographic survey, illustrating a vast military landscape in Tooele County. The map details a transition from the mid-century period of planetable surveying to the early 1980s when revisions were added via aerial photography. The terrain is characterized by expansive, level basins punctuated by isolated landforms, most notably the seasonal catchment of Dry Lake in the southern portion of the sheet. Transportation is defined by long, straight desert tracks including Goodyear Road, Stark Road, and Falconer Road, which cut through the open desert floor to connect remote military installations and observation points. The lack of permanent settlements emphasizes the restricted nature of this high-desert testing range during the Cold War era.
