1954 Map of Wildcat Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Wildcat Mountain rises sharply as a central landform on this mid-century survey, surrounded by the shifting terrain of the northern and southern Sand Dunes. This isolated topographic feature served a strategic purpose during the era, designated as part of the Wendover Air Force Range. The map reveals the intersection of military utility and natural desert geology, with several Prospects noted on the northern slopes of the mountain, indicating early mineral exploration in this arid stretch of Tooele County. The sparse infrastructure recorded in the 1950s highlights the remote nature of this training ground, where the only markings are topographic contours and section lines such as T 4 S T 5 S and R 14 W R 13 W, defining the rugged landscape of the Great Salt Lake Desert.
