The concentration of salt is significantly higher in the Dead Sea compared to the Great Salt Lake. The Dead Sea has a salinity of around 30% or more, making it one of the saltiest bodies of water in the world. In contrast, the Great Salt Lake has a salinity that typically ranges from 5% to 27%, depending on the water levels and evaporation rates. Therefore, the Dead Sea is much saltier than the Great Salt Lake.

The Great Salt Lake would freeze at a higher temperature than Lake Tahoe because it has a higher salinity level. The salt in the water lowers the freezing point, making it more resistant to freezing than fresh water.

Why does the Great Salt Lake have salt but the Great Lakes don't?
The Great Salt Lake has salt because it as no outlet, the salt of thousands of years has flowed into the lake. As the water evaporates, it leaves the salt there and it increases in concentration. The Great Lakes do not have salt because they are normal lakes, mostly fed by freshwater mountain streams and rivers, with an outlet to the oceans, so the salt does not increase in levels.
