1968 Map of Promontory Point

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Promontory Mountains dominate the northern landscape of this orthophotomap, terminating at the edge of the Great Salt Lake. This 1968-era survey illustrates the industrial and transportation infrastructure required to navigate and utilize this saline environment, notably the Southern Pacific railroad line and the Private (Lucin Cutoff) causeway. The settlement of Saline and the geographic Promontory Point serve as key landmarks along the southern tip of the peninsula, where the landscape is defined by extensive Mud Flats and specialized Salt Evaporators.
