The salinity is so high that it practically neverfreezes. It does, although, fall near freezing during the mid-winter with temperatures too cold to support lake-effect snow. It's not impossible for it to freeze.. just improbable.
The salinity of the Great Salt Lake varies, but is on average about 12%.
No, the Great Salt Lake does not have dolphins in it. The water is far too salty for much life to survive. Brine shrimp flourish, but no fish or other larger marine creatures can live there.
The plateau where you would find the Great Salt Lake is the Bonneville Salt Flats. This salt flat is located in northwestern Utah, USA, and covers an area of approximately 46 square miles. The Great Salt Lake is a remnant of the much larger Lake Bonneville that once covered this region during the last ice age.
The Colorado River runs through Utah and is probably the most significant river in the state. However, the Sevier River is the longest river entirely within the state of Utah.
Salt lowers the freezing point of water, meaning it needs to be colder for the salt water to freeze compared to pure water. The salt itself does not freeze because its freezing temperature is much lower than that of the salt water solution.
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.
The Great Salt Lake in Utah is the only lake with the name "Great Salt Lake" but it is not the only saltwater lake in the world.
