Great Salt Lake has reached a new historic low this week, despite a cool, wet spring. The Utah legislature has proposed measures to protect the lake, but advocates for the lake worry this isn’t enough.
The Great Salt Lake has fallen to a new low yet again. The lake s average daily surface water elevation dropped to 4,190.1 feet \u2014 0.1 feet below the record set in October of last year.
Climate change and rapid population growth are shrinking the Great Salt Lake, creating a bowl of toxic dust that could poison the air around Salt Lake City.
