1973 Map of Knolls SE

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Wendover Air Force Range dominates this orthophotomap, showing the stark intersection of military operations and the desert geography of the Great Salt Lake Desert. The aerial-based imagery emphasizes the interplay between the vast Mud Flat areas and the distinct, textured patterns of Shifting Sand that migrate across the basin floor. Unlike traditional line-drawn maps, this 1970s orthophotomosaic provides a direct photographic record of the land surface as it appeared during intensive military use of the region. The lack of permanent structures and the prevalence of ephemeral terrain features underscore the isolation and environmental specialized utility of this portion of Tooele County.
