1961 Map of Scrugham Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Nevada Test Site lands dominate this 1961 survey, produced in cooperation with the Atomic Energy Commission during a period of intense Cold War activity. The map reveals the stark topography of the Air Force Range, where the high plateau of Pahute Mesa gives way to complex drainage systems like Fortymile Canyon. This specific quadrant includes Area 18, a designation reflecting the administrative partitioning of the desert for specialized military and scientific use.
