Stansbury Island rises as a prominent landmass within the southern reaches of the Great Salt Lake in this 2011 survey of Tooele County. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes, with peaks such as Adams Peak and The Dome overlooking the salt flats and water. A series of steep drainage features, including Corral Canyon, Stansbury Gulch, and Tabbys Canyon, carve through the eastern slopes of the island toward the shoreline. The island is connected to the mainland via the Stansbury Island Bar, a land bridge that supports Stansbury Rd. This map captures the stark boundary between the lake's aquatic environment and the arid, rocky interior of the island, documenting the geographical layout of one of the lake's largest features before subsequent lake level fluctuations.
