About this map

Mellan and the high peaks of the Mellan Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape within the Nellis Air Force Range (Restricted Area) as it appeared in the 1980s. The map reveals the area's dual identity as both a military zone and a site of historical mineral exploration, with numerous small-scale operations including an Adit, a Prospect, and several Mine Shafts scattered near the central mountain range. This restricted territory, south of the Breen Creek drainage, contains significant infrastructure for remote monitoring, indicated by several tall towers, including Tower 60 Ft.
