2011 Map of Lincoln Point

About this map

Utah Lake dominates the geography of this quadrangle, defining the shoreline where the freshwater expanse meets the southern Utah Valley. The prominent landform of Lincoln Point projects into the water, serving as a landmark between the main body of the lake and the marshier reaches of Benjamin Slough to the east. Along the western edge, the coastline is indented by Little Cove and Big Cove, where the terrain rises quickly from the water's edge. A small, isolated landmark, Bird Island, sits well offshore, highlighting the lake's topography. Transportation in the early 21st century follows the contours of the coast via S Lincoln Beach Dr and Lincoln Bch, while a rigid grid of local roads like W 5200 S and W 5400 S begins to reach toward the shoreline from the southeast, marking the interface between the lake and agricultural or residential development.
