1972 Map of Farnsworth Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The Oquirrh Mountains meet the southern shores of the Great Salt Lake in this 1970s record of Utah’s industrial and recreational landscape. The northern edge of the range is heavily transformed by industrial activity, marked by a massive Tailings Pond, an extensive Mining Railroad network, and the Smokestacks that once defined the horizon near Garfield (Site). Further west, the map documents the transition to lakeside leisure at Sunset Beach and Silver Sands Beach, alongside the historical settlement of Lake Point. High in the interior peaks, significant infrastructure is noted at Farnsworth Peak and Kessler Peak, both serving as critical sites for a Radio Tower and television Radio Facility (KMSL TV). This survey captures the intense intersection of heavy industry, transportation corridors like Interstate 80, and the natural geography of the salt flats.
