2017 Map of Salduro SE

About this map

Great Salt Lake Desert dominates this 2017 landscape in Tooele County, Utah, providing a high-resolution look at one of the most starkly unique environments in the American West. The terrain is characterized by an almost perfectly flat expanse of salt crust and sediment, with elevation contours subtly marking the edges of this ancient lakebed. The map illustrates the Public Land Survey System grid, including townships like t3s r17w and t2s r18w, which divide the open salt flats. These boundaries underscore the vast, uninhabited nature of the desert floor, where traditional landmarks are replaced by the sheer scale of the dry lake. The sparse topographic lines reveal the precise leveling of the salt flats, a geographic feature essential for understanding the hydrology and land management of this remote basin.
