About this map

The Nevada Test Site dominates this 1961 survey, a landscape defined by the strategic interests of the Atomic Energy Commission during the height of the Cold War. The terrain is characterized by the high elevations of Shoshone Mountain and Mine Mountain, separated by the broad expanse of Mid Valley. This map reflects the development of nuclear testing infrastructure, specifically centered around Mine Mountain Junction and the network of primitive routes like Lookout Peak Rd.
