Additional Details:
The Great Salt Lake, Utah. 18 miles long with an average width of 10 miles. Like the Dead Sea in Palestine, it is a remnant of a prehistoric sea, fed by the Jordan River, but has no known outlet. The water is 21 per cent salt and millions of tons of salt are shipped annually from this lake. 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.
