If you're interested in knowing how many official islands there are at the Great Salt Lake, check out this @utahgeological page on them: geology.utah.gov/map-pub/survey…,(the%20other%20Goose%20Island).
There are several islands in the Great Salt Lake such as Antelope, Stansbury, Fremont, etc. While I was on assignment at the lake today for @KSL5TV, my dog Timber claims to have discovered another island and wants @utahgeological to officially name it Timber Island.

Thank you to our hazards team at @utahgeological for their landslide work this year. Investigating and documenting landslide activity, especially for wet, active years, plays an important part in better understanding hazards in #Utah!
Utah’s 2023 spring landslide season was the most active since 2011, which the UGS geologic hazards team anticipated given the record snowpack of the winter of 2022–23 across the state. Learn more here–ow.ly/970650PXN69 #utahgeohazard #utahgeology #utahlandslides #landslide

Utah's West Desert Cambrian record is awesome!
Almost late for #Trilobitetuesday - here is a plate of select trilobites and agnostids from the mid-Cambrian Marjum Fm. , which I worked on earlier today for a forthcoming conference. The middle Marjum Fm. has yielded no less than 19 trilobite species and 20 agnostid species!
It’s always a great day on Three Creeks when we run into @utahgeological’s Hugh Hurlow and crew! Here they are maintaining their piezometers to monitor hydrologic connectivity with the new grazing system!
@utahgeological We love it! And we have something similar :)
