1968 Map of Corral Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Stansbury Island rises sharply from the eastern edge of this 1960s orthophotomap, its steep slopes marked by Corral Canyon and Tabbys Canyon. The landscape is dominated by the industrial and ecological management of the Great Salt Lake shoreline, where Salt Evaporators and a Pumping Station signify the commercial extraction of minerals from the brine. To the west, the expanse of the Mud Flat is punctuated by the Timpie Springs Waterfowl Management Area, showing the efforts to preserve habitat amidst the saline environment. Infrastructure like the Protective Ditch and various Gravel Pits at the island's base reflect the mid-century development of Tooele County's natural resources. This hybrid survey combines traditional topographic contours with an aerial photographic base, capturing the precise state of the lake's water levels at a Normal Pool Elevation 4193.
