Great Salt Lake Description

Great Salt Lake, located in the northern part of the U.S. state of Utah, is the largest salt lake in the western hemisphere,[1] the fourth-largest terminal lake in the world,[2] and the 37th-largest lake on Earth.[3] In an average year the lake covers an area of around 1,700 square miles (4,400 km2)[2], but the lake's size fluctuates substantially due to its shallowness. For instance, in 1963 it reached its lowest recorded level at 950 square miles (2,460 km²), but in 1987 the surface area was at the historic high of 3,300 square miles (8,500 km2)[2](8,547 km²).
