The Utah Test and Training Range and Dugway Proving Ground dominate this mid-century desert landscape, illustrating the significant military presence in the Great Salt Lake Desert. Compiled from imagery dating back to 1953 and updated in the early 1990s, the map reveals a stark terrain defined by expansive Mud Flats and shifting Sand Dunes. The absence of civilian infrastructure emphasizes the area's specialized role in national defense, where the topography itself serves as a buffer for testing and training operations. The precise delineation of township boundaries, including T 5 S T 6 S, provides a foundational grid for the vast stretches of uninhabited land within Tooele County.
