About this map

The Great Salt Lake Desert dominates the western half of this mid-century survey, a landscape defined by expansive salt flats and isolated mountain ranges like the Silver Island Mountains. The mapping reflects a region heavily partitioned for military and industrial use during the Cold War era. To the east, the Tooele Ordnance Depot and the Deseret Chemical Corps Depot sit at the foot of the Oquirrh Mountains, highlighting the area's strategic importance.
