2011 Map of Lake Ridge

About this map

Salt Wells Flat dominates the northwestern expanse of this high-desert landscape in Box Elder County, showing a vast area of seasonal inundation or alkaline surface. The terrain is defined by the steady rise toward Lake Ridge to the southeast, a transition from the low-lying flats to higher ground. Human presence in this arid region is sparse and primarily oriented around isolated water sources and a network of desert roads. Cedar Springs and the associated Cedar Spring serve as the primary named focal point in the southeast corner. A series of graded routes, including Salt Wells Rd and 7480 W Rd, provide the essential transportation skeleton for this portion of the Great Salt Lake desert fringe during the early 21st century.
