Context paragraphs:
State Street (Salt Lake County): State Street is a wide 17.3 mi street in Salt Lake County, Utah leading almost straight south from the steps of the Utah State Capitol Building, through Salt Lake City (including Downtown Salt Lake City), South Salt Lake, western Millcreek Township, Murray (including the Murray Downtown Historic District), eastern Midvale, Sandy (including the Sandy Historic District and Downtown Sandy), and northwestern Draper.  Because it follows the most direct route from downtown Salt Lake City to the Point of the Mountain pass to Utah County, it was the undisputed main road south from Salt Lake City until Interstate 15 was built to the west (but closely paralleling it).  It retains the US Highway 89 designation for all but the northernmost seven blocks (which are part of State Route 186 instead) despite I-15's proximity.  Due to its history as a route for long-distance travel, travel within the Wasatch Front region, and travel between the cities along the east side of the Jordan River, it has attracted a wide variety of retail and service businesses along its entire length, creating a nearly continuous commercial axis for the Salt Lake Valley.

Jordan River (Utah): The Jordan River, in the state of Utah, United States, is a river about 51 mi long.  Regulated by pumps at its headwaters at Utah Lake, it flows northward through the Salt Lake Valley and empties into the Great Salt Lake.  Four of Utah's six largest cities border the river: Salt Lake City, West Valley City, West Jordan and Sandy.  More than a million people live in the Jordan Subbasin, which is the part of the Jordan River watershed that lies within Salt Lake and Utah counties.  During the Pleistocene, the area was part of Lake Bonneville.

Great Salt Lake Desert: The Great Salt Lake Desert is a large dry lake in northern Utah, United States between the Great Salt Lake and the Nevada border which is noted for white evaporite Lake Bonneville salt deposits.

History of Salt Lake City: Originally, the Salt Lake Valley was inhabited by the Shoshone, Paiute, Goshute and Ute Native American tribes.  At the time of the founding of Salt Lake City the valley was within the territory of the Northwestern Shoshone, who had their seasonal camps along streams within the valley and in adjacent valleys.  One of the local Shoshone tribes, the Western Goshute tribe, referred to the Great Salt Lake as "Pi'a-pa", meaning "big water", or "Ti'tsa-pa", meaning "bad water".  The land was treated by the United States as public domain; no aboriginal title by the Northwestern Shoshone was ever recognized by the United States or extinguished by treaty with the United States.  Father Silvestre Vélez de Escalante, a Spanish Franciscan missionary is considered the first European explorer in the area in 1776, but only came as far north as Utah valley (Provo), some 60 miles south of the Salt Lake City area.  The first US visitor to see the Salt Lake area was John Chugg in 1824.  U.S. Army officer John C. Frémont surveyed the Great Salt Lake and the Salt Lake Valley in 1843 and 1845.  The Donner Party, a group of ill-fated pioneers, traveled through the Great Salt Lake Valley a year before the Mormon pioneers.  This group had spent weeks traversing difficult terrain and brush, cutting a road through the Wasatch Mountains, coming through Emigration canyon into the Salt Lake Valley on August 12, 1846.  This same path would be used by the vanguard company of Mormon pioneers, and for many years after that by those following them to Salt Lake.

Great Salt Lake: The Great Salt Lake, located in the northern part of the U.S. state of Utah, is the largest salt water lake in the Western Hemisphere, and the eighth-largest terminal lake in the world.  In an average year the lake covers an area of around 1700 sqmi , but the lake's size fluctuates substantially due to its shallowness.  For instance, in 1963 it reached its lowest recorded size at 950 square miles (2,460 km²), but in 1988 the surface area was at the historic high of 3300 sqmi .  In terms of surface area, it is the largest lake in the United States that is not part of the Great Lakes region.

Interstate 80 in Utah: Interstate 80 (I-80) is a part of the Interstate Highway System that runs from San Francisco, California, to Teaneck, New Jersey.  The portion of the highway in the U.S. state of Utah is 196.35 mi , through the northern part of the state.  From west to east, I-80 crosses the state line from Nevada in Tooele County and traverses the Bonneville Salt Flatswhich are a part of the larger Great Salt Lake Desert.  It continues alongside the Wendover Cut-offthe corridor of the former Victory HighwayU.S. Route 40 (US-40) and the Western Pacific Railroad Feather River Route.  After passing the Oquirrh Mountains, I-80 enters the Salt Lake Valley and Salt Lake County.  A short portion of the freeway is concurrent with I-15 through Downtown Salt Lake City.  At the Spaghetti Bowl, I-80 turns east again into the mouth of Parley's Canyon and Summit County, travels through the mountain range and intersects the eastern end of I-84 near Echo Reservoir before turning northeast towards the Wyoming border near Evanston.  I-80 was built along the corridor of the Lincoln Highway and the Mormon Trail through the Wasatch Range.  The easternmost section also follows the historical routes of the First Transcontinental Railroad and US-30S.

Great Salt Lake effect: The Great Salt Lake effect is a small but detectable influence on the local climate and weather around the Great Salt Lake in Utah, United States.  In particular, snowstorms are a common occurrence over the region and have major socio-economic impacts due to their significant precipitation amounts.  The Great Salt lake never freezes and can warm rapidly which allows lake-effect precipitation to occur from September through May.  Lake-enhanced snowstorms are often attributed to creating what is locally known as "The Greatest Snow on Earth."

Salt Lake Cutoff: The Salt Lake Cutoff is one of the many shortcuts (or cutoffs) that branched from the California, Mormon and Oregon Trails in the United States.  It led northwest out of Salt Lake City, Utah and north of the Great Salt Lake for about 180 mi before rejoining the California trail near the City of Rocks, Idaho.  From there Oregon Trail travelers could easily travel down the Raft River valley portion of the California Trail to return to the Oregon Trail.  It provided a way to stop in Salt Lake City (the only significant city on the trail then) for repairs, fresh supplies, fresh livestock etc..  In later years it was used by tens of thousands of pioneers and miners going east and west on their way to or from the future states of California, Oregon, Utah, Idaho, Montana, Nevada or Washington.

Lake Vostok: Lake Vostok (Russian: Озеро Восток , "Ozero Vostok", lit.  "Lake East") is the largest of Antarctica's almost 400 known subglacial lakes.

Howard Stansbury: Howard Stansbury (February 8, 1806 – April 17, 1863) was a major in the U.S. Army Corps of Topographical Engineers.  His most notable achievement was leading a two-year expedition (1849–1851) to survey the Great Salt Lake and its surroundings.  The expedition report entitled "Exploration and survey of the valley of the Great Salt Lake of Utah, including a reconnaissance of a new route through the Rocky Mountains" was published in 1852 providing the first serious scientific exploration of the flora and fauna of the Great Salt Lake Valley as well as a favorable impression of the members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, who had settled there beginning in 1847.
