2017 Map of Saltair NE

About this map

The expansive waters of the Great Salt Lake dominate this coastal landscape at the interface of Davis and Salt Lake Counties. The map documents the intricate wetland and shoreline environments where Farmington Bay meets the main body of the lake. To the south, a complex drainage network emerges, characterized by Crystal Cr and the branching paths of Left Fork Spring Creek and Right Fork Spring Creek. These waterways traverse the low-lying marshes and mudflats typical of the region, providing a detailed look at the hydrology of the eastern shore. The presence of Goose Island within the bay highlights the varying topography of the lakebed and its seasonal islands. This 2017 survey serves as a modern baseline for researchers tracking the shifting water levels and the environmental structure of the eastern Great Salt Lake shoreline.
