About this map

Nevada Test Site Area 400 occupies a central role in this survey, conducted in cooperation with the Atomic Energy Commission during a critical period of Cold War desert operations. The landscape is a mix of high-altitude terrain, including the Calico Hills and Little Skull Mtn, and the broad, dry expanse of Jackass Flats. Infrastructure for the testing site is visible throughout, from the Trailer Park near the intersection of Jackass Flats Road to specialized installations like the Weather Tower Station 14 and a Lookout Tower.
