1962 Map of Quartet Dome

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Nevada Test Site and the Nellis Air Force Range dominate this Cold War-era topography of the high desert. Mapped in cooperation with the Atomic Energy Commission using 1961 aerial photography, the landscape reflects a transition from traditional desert landforms to restricted military zones. The boundary lines for Area 12 intersect the high peaks and benches of the region, including the prominent Quartet Dome and the extensive Belted Bench.
