2014 Map of Floating Island SW

About this map

The expansive Great Salt Lake Desert dominates this Tooele County landscape, offering a stark look at one of the most distinctive geological regions in the American West. The survey highlights the northern reaches of the Bonneville Salt Flats, a renowned geological feature known for its level, salt-crusted surface. A specific human imprint on this otherwise desolate terrain is the International Racetrack Overrun, marking the northern limit of the famous speedway. This 2014 edition provides clear township and range boundaries, such as t2n r17w and t1n r16w, which define the cadastral grid across the vast salt crust. The lack of traditional topography or settlements emphasizes the unique environmental character of this portion of the desert, where the surface remains nearly perfectly flat for miles.
