1990 Map of Empire

About this map

Empire stands as a focal point of industrial and municipal activity on the western edge of the Selenite Range during the late 20th century. The settlement is characterized by its utilitarian infrastructure, including a Landing Strip, Tanks, and a Golf Course, all positioned where the foothills meet the expansive Black Rock Desert. This 1990 provisional survey highlights the intersection of resource extraction and desert life, showing numerous Borrow Pits, a Quarry, and various Prospect sites scattered across the transition from the valley floor to the high elevations of Selenite Peak.
