SOUVENIR OF THE GREAT SALT LAKE,
UTAH.
This Great Dead Sea, the largest in the world,
is located 18 miles west of Salt Lake City. It
covers an approximate area of 2,140 square miles,
being 50 miles wide and 75 miles long with an
average depth of 13 feet. Like the Dead Sea in
Palestine, it is. fed by the Jordan River, but has
no known outlet other than evaporation. The
Salt Shrimp is the only living insect known to
exist therein. The water is 21 per cent. salt
and millions of tons of salt are shipped annually
from this source.
The water of the lake is so heavy one cannot
sink, affording the most delightful bathing in
the world, which is enjoyed by thousands each
season.
