1991 Map of Lucin 4 SE

About this map

The Newfoundland Evaporation Basin dominates this portion of the Great Salt Lake Desert, a landscape defined by expansive salt flats and mud. This 1991 survey shows the basin as a highly specialized environment, situated at the intersection of natural salt flats and modern strategic land use. The southern half of the map is defined by the Utah Test and Training Range North, a restricted zone used for military aviation and aerospace testing. The Military Reservation Boundary runs through the center of the sheet, also marking the administrative line between Box Elder Co and Tooele Co. This map captures a remote area where the extreme geography of the salt desert meets the vast spatial requirements of late 20th-century defense operations.
