1983 Map of Lucin 4 SE

About this map

Air Force Range lands dominate the southern expanse of this 1983 orthophotomap, where the boundary between Box Elder Co and Tooele Co cuts across a stark, remote desert landscape. The terrain is characterized by an extensive Mud Flat, a featureless plain punctuated only by a solitary Hill in the southern quadrant. This survey, compiled from 1973 aerial photography, captures the isolation of the Great Salt Lake Desert, where the primary human footprint is defined by military use rather than settlement. The lack of roads, structures, or traditional landmarks emphasizes the specialized utility of this corridor for defense testing during the late twentieth century.
