About this map

White Sands Missile Range dominates the central and eastern portions of this High Desert landscape, marking a significant 1980s military footprint across the Tularosa Basin. The map identifies the Trinity Site (Historic) northwest of the Oscura Mountains, where the world's first nuclear test occurred decades prior. To the west, the Rio Grande valley provides a stark contrast to the arid interior, supporting the lush wetlands of the Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge.
