2023 Map of West of Wildcat Mountain SW

About this map

Great Salt Lake Desert dominates this Tooele County landscape, presenting a vast, desolate expanse of salt flats and arid terrain. This 2023 edition highlights the area's primary modern identity as a restricted military zone, specifically as part of the Utah Test and Training Range. Within this reservation lies the West Desert Test Center, a site critical to government testing and military operations. The map is notably sparse, reflecting the absence of civilian settlements or infrastructure in this portion of the Great Salt Lake Desert. The minimal topography and lack of roads underscore the isolation of these military installations, which are situated far from established towns in the Tooele region.
