2020 Map of Aragonite

About this map

Aragonite stands as the primary namesake settlement in this expansive section of Tooele County, situated at the edge of the Great Salt Desert. The landscape is defined by the stark transition between the flat alkaline expanses to the west and the rising topography to the east, where the contours of Ripple Valley and the surrounding hills begin to emerge. The infrastructure of the region is dominated by the modern transit corridor of I-80, which cuts diagonally across the northern portion of the map, following a path roughly parallel to the historic Aragonite Loop Rd and Clive Rd. This 2020 digital survey illustrates the spatial relationship between the industrial footprint at Aragonite and the vast, undeveloped reaches of the desert floor, providing a clear record of the area's roads and land divisions.
