About this map

Utah Lake dominates this late-twentieth-century landscape, where the northern terminus of West Mountain juts into the water to form Lincoln Point. This prominent geographical feature is a focal point for local activity, evidenced by the Boat Ramp and the Pumping Sta Levee located at its tip. To the east, the terrain transitions into the low-lying Mud Flat and the marshy reaches of Benjamin Slough, reflecting the complex shoreline dynamics of the basin.

Agricultural and industrial utility is apparent through the network of infrastructure, including a Flowing Well, various points marked Water Pump, and a Water Tank. On the slopes of West Mountain, several Prospects indicate historic mineral exploration or small-scale mining efforts. Further out in the lake, the isolated Bird Island remains a distinct landmark. The presence of the South Ditch Road and designated Levee areas highlights the ongoing efforts to manage water and land use along the lake's southern margin.
