2011 Map of Crater Island
USGS Topo · Published 2011About this map
Donner- Reed Pass serves as a stark geographic waypoint in this portion of the Great Salt Lake Desert, where the rocky terrain of the Silver Island Mountains meets the salt flats. This 2011 survey captures the austere isolation of Crater Island, a prominent landform separated from the main mountain range by expansive playas. The presence of Silver Island Rd tracing the southern edge of Silver Island indicates the primary modern access route through this unforgiving environment. Geologists and historians can study the relationship between these desert "islands" and the historical trails that once navigated the salt crust, including the namesake route that passed through the gaps in these peaks.
