1993 Map of Wig Mtn NW

USGS Topo · Published 1996

About this map

Mud Flat and shifting Sand Dunes dominate this desolate stretch of the Great Salt Lake Desert, where the landscape is defined by its use as a restricted military zone. The territory is split between the Utah Test and Training Range and the Dugway Proving Ground, illustrating the mid-century expansion of military aviation and weapons testing in the American West. While the topographical data reflects surveys dating back to the 1950s, this 1993 revision highlights the persistent isolation and specialized purpose of the Tooele County desert. Researchers of military history and cartographers will find value in the precise boundary markers for the proving grounds amidst the natural alkaline flats.
