1968 Map of Plug Peak SE

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The waters of the Great Salt Lake dominate this 1968 orthophotomap, showing the lake as it stood following a recorded elevation of 4,193 feet in November 1966. This specific quadrangle captures a vast expanse of open water and the transitional shoreline, including a prominent Mud Flat in the southwest corner. The map provides a unique view of the jurisdictional boundaries that meet within the lake's basin, tracing the intersection of Tooele, Davis, and Salt Lake counties. Because the shoreline is subject to constant change, the document reflects the contemporary state of the lake bed and water levels prior to the significant fluctuations of the late 20th century. Data for this sheet was compiled with assistance from the U.S. Naval Reserve and the Utah Geological and Mineralogical Survey, reflecting a period of collaborative study on the lake's topography and soundings.
