About this map

Belted Range dominates this 1952 topographic study, showcasing a landscape redefined by mid-century military operations in Nye County. The high desert terrain is largely contained within the Las Vegas Bombing and Gunnery Range, which overlaps with the northern reaches of the Nevada Proving Grounds. These designations reflect the era's intensifying atomic and aerial testing programs.
