1991 Map of West of Miners Basin

USGS Topo · Published 1995

About this map

Flowing Wells and a lone Flowing Well stand as critical hydrological markers in this austere landscape of western Box Elder County. The terrain is defined by the expansive Mud Basin and the Newfoundland flats, where the ground is primarily categorized as Mud. The labeling of Evaporation across the salt-crusted surface highlights the environmental dynamics of the Great Salt Lake Desert region during the late twentieth century. This survey, compiled from 1970s and 1980s aerial photography, captures a moment of geological and hydrological recording in a place where water sources are rare and vital. The map provides a precise layout of the shoreline and salt pan interface, a landscape shaped more by natural evaporation processes than by human settlement.
