Cold War military tests left a crater near Cedar City. Today, off-roaders drive through it

The Three Peaks Recreation Area near Cedar City, Utah, remains marked by craters and debris from Cold War-era military explosives testing. The site, once used by the U.S. Air Force to test the durability of underground missile silos against blasts, is now a popular destination for off-roaders and hikers. Remnants of the experimental structures are still visible in the landscape today.
