About this map

Nellis Air Force Range and the Nevada Test Site dominate this Cold War-era landscape, where the high desert terrain of the Emigrant Valley was repurposed for national security and atomic research. Published in cooperation with the Atomic Energy Commission, the map documents a strictly controlled environment marked by a Military Test Reservation Site Boundary and an Alpha Contaminated Area.
