The minimalist landscape of the Great Salt Lake Desert is centered on the site of Arinosa, a historic stop along the western transport corridor through Tooele County. This 2011 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey captures the stark geography where infrastructure meets the salt flats. The map is defined by the nearly straight alignment of the northern transit corridor, which includes Frontage Rd. The vast majority of the quadrangle shows the unique hydrography and topography of the salt flats, with very few named features or settlements, reflecting the extreme environment of this portion of western Utah.
