One of the main training facilities for mechanized war games.

The photo lacks, though, the location's most prominent identifying feature, the other leg of the 'wye.' Matter of fact, while I thought the view was Keddie Wye, I needed the caption to confirm it. Out of curiosity, Adam, was the canyon river flowing or was it frozen solid? Burrrrrr ...
