1952 Map of Papoose Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

The Las Vegas Bombing and Gunnery Range dominates this mid-century landscape of the Nevada desert, where military activity and natural basins converge. Mapping efforts by the Army Map Service reveal a territory undergoing intense administrative transformation, marked by the proximity of the Nevada Proving Grounds and the sprawling Desert Game Range. The terrain is defined by its arid dry lakes and prominent ridges, with the Papoose Lake bed sitting central to the Papoose Range.
