About this map

Great Salt Lake shorelines and the stark high-desert terrain of Box Elder County define this northern Utah landscape. The map centers on the small settlement of Rozel and the expansive Rozel Flat, situated at the base of the North Promontory Mountains. This area is characterized by its proximity to the historic transcontinental railroad corridor, now traced by modern routes like the Golden Spike Loop Rd and the West Auto Tour Route.

The topography transitions from the low-lying Spring Bay and the salt flats of the lake basin to the volcanic landforms of the Rozel Hills and the prominent peak of Black Mtn. These features reflect a remote environment shaped by extreme saline conditions and geological uplift, where a grid of rural section roads like 29200 W and 26800 W Rd provides access to the sparse ranchlands and historic sites bordering the lake.
