About this map

Fremont Island dominates the center of this survey, surrounded by the waters of the Great Salt Lake. This topographical study reveals the island's complex interior, from the heights of David E Miller Hill and Beacon Hill down to the sheltered Circle Valley. The shoreline is marked by distinct features such as Jones Beach and Argo Point, while the narrow Fremont Island Bar extends toward the south.

To the north, the industrial footprint of the region is visible where the Southern Pacific Causeway and Bear River Bridge span the gap between Bear River Bay and the main body of the lake. These massive infrastructure elements connect the mainland near Little Mountain across the open water, illustrating the transportation corridor's necessity in this unique aquatic landscape where the county lines of Box Elder, Weber, and Davis converge.
