1986 Map of Midway NW

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Luke Air Force Range dominates this mid-1980s landscape, illustrating the intersection of military training grounds and the arid Sonoran desert. The terrain is defined by the sharp elevations of the Crater Range in the southwest, giving way to the alluvial flats of the Midway Wash. This area is characterized by tactical infrastructure, including an Observation Tower and a Heliport, positioned to overlook the sprawling range. The sparse water resources, represented by labels like Black Tank and a single Well, underscore the environmental challenges of this Maricopa County interior. As a provisional edition, this map focuses on terrain relief and military landmarks, preserving the layout of the range before modern expansions. Prominent landmarks like Malpais Hill serve as distinct navigational markers within the vast, open desert environment.
