1952 Map of Mellan

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Mellan and the surrounding high-desert territory of the Nellis Air Force Range are captured here during a period of transition in the early 1950s. The landscape is defined by its isolation and specialized use, featuring remote outposts like Wilsons Camp and Trappman, as well as a dedicated Mining Area in the western hills. The presence of several targets, a Landing Field, and an Observation Tower reflects the mid-century military expansion into this part of the Great Basin.
