1989 Map of Groom Range SW

About this map

Nellis Air Force Range dominates this landscape, reflecting the heavy military presence in the High Desert during the late twentieth century. Located in Lincoln County, the map provides a look at the transition between the basin floor of Emigrant Valley and the rising elevations of the Groom Range to the northwest. The presence of the Nevada Test Site Restricted Access Area along the western edge highlights the strategic and classified nature of this terrain during the Cold War era. This provisional survey captures a vast expanse of undeveloped land, where the topography is defined by the sharp, arid peaks of the Jumbled Hills. The lack of civil infrastructure underscores the isolation of these military-controlled zones in the Nevada desert.
