1952 Map of Quartzite Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The Las Vegas Bombing and Gunnery Range dominates this mid-century landscape in Nye County, reflecting the heavy military presence in the Nevada desert during the early Cold War. Large swaths of the terrain are marked as Restricted, with numerous targets, towers, and a trailer site scattered across the high desert flats. Despite the military designation, the map records traces of earlier ranching and mining activity, such as the Wild Horse Ranch and Cedar Wells.
