About this map

Dugway Proving Ground and the Wendover Bombing and Gunnery Range dominate this mid-century topographic record of the Tooele County desert. Compiled from aerial photographs taken in 1953, the map shows a landscape defined almost entirely by military boundaries and natural terrain. The northeastern corner of the quadrangle is marked by prominent Sand Dunes, providing a stark contrast to the vast, open expanse utilized for defense operations during the early Cold War era. Surveyed by plane-table methods in 1954, the map preserves the exact alignment of township and range lines across this restricted government land, where few human-made features exist beyond the survey monuments and military perimeters.
