The volcanic topography of the Pancake Range dominates this late-1960s study, produced through a collaboration between the Atomic Energy Commission and the Geological Survey. The landscape is defined by its distinct basaltic features, most notably the namesake Lunar Crater and the curiously shaped Easy Chair Crater to the east. These geological formations rise from the arid floor of the Big Sand Springs Valley, providing a detailed look at the cinder cones and lava flows that characterize this part of Nye County.
