The Great Salt Lake Desert dominates this landscape in western Utah, revealing a flat, vast expanse where topographical contours are remarkably sparse. Situated in Tooele County, this portion of the desert is defined by its expansive salt flats and minimal elevation changes, characteristic of the ancient Lake Bonneville bed. The survey focuses on the Public Land Survey System (PLSS) township and range grid, specifically showing the boundaries of t2s r15w, t2s r14w, t3s r15w, t3s r14w, t4s r15w, and t4s r14w. This 2014 edition captures the stark geography of the basin-and-range province, where the landform is primarily shaped by evaporation and mineral deposition rather than human settlement or industrial development.
