Native America Calling: The future of the Great Salt Lake

The future of the Great Salt Lake
Long before it became the inspiration to build what became Utah’s largest city, the Great Salt Lake was an important place for the Ute, Paiute, Goshute and Shoshone nations among many others.
Now, the lake is at half the volume it was just a few decades ago and it continues to shrink. Ongoing climate change and over committed water resources point to a future without the lake recovering to its ideal volume.
