Antelope Island rises from the brine of the Great Salt Lake, serving as a focal point for recreation and conservation in the early 21st century. The northern tip of the island is marked by the Antelope Island Campground and the rocky peninsula of Ladyfinger, overlooking the waters of Buffalo Bay. A single main thoroughfare, Antelope Island Rd, provides access across the shoreline, connecting visitors to interior landmarks like the Tin Lambing Basin and the elevation at Beacon Knob. This survey captures the island's dual nature as both a natural refuge and a managed public space, where sheep-ranching history is hinted at by the names of basins and sheds. To the east, across the water, Payne Field sits near the mainland shoreline, highlighting the proximity between the remote island landscape and the developing communities of Davis County. The map details the precise interface of land and water at White Rock Bay and Camera Flats during this specific environmental era.
