Salt ijkeCity mv-l'tuh's fam
ed Groat Salt Like, which omv
spread over parts of three states,
could grow back to if, gigantic
old sbe in 2S.IXX) years.
It would take just a slight
change in climate t recreate the
old Lake Bonneville thai ont-e
filled the great Bonneville basin,
in the opinion of Arthur K.
Granger, regional federal geolo
gist in Salt Lake City.
Granger based his prediction
on data gathered while piviwii ing
an educational film on the ii is
tury of the lake. He pointed out
that a one- or two-inch1 increase
in precipitatiun coupled with a
year 'rujnd temperature drop of
a few degrees would do the trick.
He predicted that the drop in
temperature would be sufficient
in the high mountains surround
ing the lake to store the Increase
of rain and snow for longer pe
riods. In time the increased run
off would cause the lake to en
large. 1
Vast Changes
Granger pointed out that over
a period ot 25,000 years the lake
could regain its former size,
about Ihe same as that of Lake
Michigan. At one time Lake Bon
neville covered most of L'tah and
parts of Nevada and Idaho.
It is estimated that the surface
was once 1.000 feet above the
present area comprising Salt
Lake City. The lake had a length
of about 350 miles and was
around 150 miles wide but with
no outlet to the sea.
As torrents of rain and heavily
stocked glaciers continued to in
crease the size. Lake Bonneville
finally overflowed through Red
Rock Pass in south Idaho. The
; sudden passage of water destroy
jNi a section of the mountain nt;-.!
the water rushed towards sea
(level nnd the Pacific Ocean, via
the Snake and Columbia rivers.
I The lake thus dronncd about
37S fivt in n relatively short time.
However, once It had receded bo
low the pas It once again was
without an outlet to the sea. Dur
ing Its brief existence, the river
caused by the Red Rock pass
break-through was bt-iieveil to
have been one of the largest in
the history of the earth.
Work of Age
From this stage the hike slowly
receded by evaporation ami re
duced precipitation. Geologists
believe the process took perhaps
100.000 years. Others, Including
Granger, place the age of the lake
at LTvWO years.
Twice the lake's shrinkage halt
ed to stabilize its lioundarics on
the slopes of the l'tah mountains,
from which its history may be
read with certainty. After thou
sands of years only the relatively
tiny Great Salt Lake of today was
left, together with two strange
looking mountains that are actu
ally mountain tops, their bases
buried In ancient salt.
The lake left a parched desert
landscape, flat and salty, feared
and avoided by the Indians. The
early pioneers, Jim Bridger and
Peter Ogden, were among the first
to explore the shrunken salt lake.
However, while others passed on.
afraid of the wasteland, Mormon
leader Brigham- Young eyed the
fertile uplands east of the lake
and there settled his new "Zion."
But despite the thriving towns
and communities, some close to
the shores of the present lake,
few persons go near it, except on
the southeastern slopes where
limited lieach and lialhlnK oppor
tunities are offered. At pit-sent
the lake Is 27 Hr cent salt and
