Silver Island Mountains dominate this landscape within the Great Salt Lake Desert, rising sharply above the surrounding salt crust. This 2014 survey captures the distinct intersection of high-altitude peaks and the perfectly level expanses used for world-class racing. Notable summits including Tetzlaff Peak, Rishel Peak, and Volcano Peak provide the backdrop for the famous Bonneville Salt Flats to the south. The southern portion of the sheet is dedicated to speed, detailing the layout of the International Racetrack, the Hot Rod Track, and the Bonneville Racetrack. Access to this remote environment is shown via several desert tracks, including Prospect Rd and Bonneville Speedway Rd, which connect the mountain passes to the expansive racing grounds below.
