About this map

Great Salt Lake dominates the western half of this 2014 survey, illustrating the stark interface between Utah's iconic saline waters and the uplifted terrain of Stansbury Island. The landscape is defined by its topographic extremes, rising from the lakebed to high points like Adams Peak and The Dome. Navigational access to this isolated landform is limited to the Stansbury Island Rd, which skirts the eastern shoreline along the base of the mountains.

Erosional features carve deep into the island's interior, evidenced by the eponymous Corral Canyon, Tabbys Canyon, and Stansbury Gulch. To the south, the Stansbury Island Bar marks a distinct geological transition, showing how the landform connects to the mainland during periods of lower water levels. This map provides a precise record of the shoreline and mountain profiles before recent fluctuations in the lake's elevation.
