1993 Map of East of Gold Hill Wash

About this map

Dugway Proving Ground occupies the center of this remote desert landscape in western Utah, reflecting the restricted nature of the Great Salt Lake Desert in the late twentieth century. The terrain is dominated by a expansive Mud Flat, where the absence of roads, buildings, or water sources underscores the isolation of this military testing range. Surveyed primarily through 1973 imagery and updated in the 1990s, the map reveals a stark environment defined by subtle elevation changes and the rigid boundaries of the Public Land Survey System, including T 7 S and T 8 S. This document is a record of a strictly controlled government landscape where natural topography and military operations intersect.
