2023 Map of Poverty Point

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Great Salt Lake dominates the eastern margin of this survey, where the waters of Stansbury Bay meet a landscape of salt flats and distinct landforms. The terrain is defined by named rises such as Black Knoll and the prominent Poverty Point, which overlooks a network of desert tracks. Transportation through this arid environment is limited to specific routes like the W West Stansbury Causeway Rd and Green Stick Rd, which navigate the shifting boundaries between dry land and seasonal water features. The map illustrates a stark geographic relationship between the massive salt lake and the isolated interior points like Dead Cow Point. Localized water sources, notably Greasewood Pond, provide rare breaks in the alkaline flats, offering a detailed look at the hydrology of the eastern Great Basin during the early twenty-first century.
