1973 Map of Knolls SE

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Wendover Air Force Range dominates this landscape in the western Utah desert during the early 1970s. This orthophotomap combines traditional topographic contours with aerial imagery to reveal the stark, physical reality of the Mud Flat and expanse of Shifting Sand that define the Great Salt Lake Desert. The lack of permanent settlements or infrastructure reflects the area's specialized use as a military testing and training ground. The intricate patterns of the Shifting Sand are clearly visible through the photogrammetric process, providing a precise record of the desert floor's geomorphology at the time of the 1973 field check.
