About this map

Dugway Proving Ground occupies a substantial portion of this mid-century survey, illustrating the intersection of military operations and the arid Basin and Range landscape. The eastern edge of the map is dominated by the steep, rocky profiles of Wig Mountain, which rises sharply from the surrounding desert floor. This topography is characterized by deep ravines like Rydalch Canyon and critical passes such as Six Horse Pass. To the west, the landscape transitions into a vast expanse of Sand Dunes, showing the shifting geological nature of the Great Salt Lake Desert.
