2020 Map of Bovine SE

About this map

Newfoundland Evaporation Basin dominates the southern landscape of this Box Elder County terrain. This specific 2020 survey illustrates the vast hydrographic reach of the basin within the Great Salt Lake desert ecosystem, where the interaction between desert flats and water management is clearly delineated. The map focuses on the industrial and natural intersection of the evaporation systems used in this part of Utah, highlighting the stark geometry of the basin against the public land survey system. It serves as a precise record of the shoreline and elevation contours at the start of the decade, showing how the Newfoundland Evaporation Basin interfaces with the surrounding territory managed by the BLM and FWS.
