1973 Map of East of Gold Hill Wash

USGS Topo · Published 1995

About this map

Dugway Proving Ground occupies the central portion of this 1973 orthophoto-topographic study, revealing the stark landscape of Tooele County during the early 1970s. The map illustrates the expansive Mud Flat terrain that dominates this region of the Great Salt Lake Desert, characterized by its extreme flatness and sparse vegetation. This particular sheet was produced through a collaboration between the U.S. Geological Survey and the Utah Geological and Mineral Survey, utilizing aerial photography to capture the intricate patterns of the salt crust and desert floor. The visual data provides a clear record of the intersection between military land use and the natural geography of the West, documenting the precise boundaries of Township 7 South and Township 8 South amidst the vast, open alkaline flats.
