About this map

The Las Vegas Bombing and Gunnery Range dominates this mid-century landscape in Nye County, revealing a specialized military geography of targets, towers, and restricted airspace. Surveyed in the early 1950s, the map documents the intersection of old desert livelihoods and new strategic imperatives. To the north, Wild Horse Ranch and Cedar Wells stand near the Kawich Range, while further south, the Mining Area and the Gold Reed (Site) hint at the region's earlier prospecting history.
