Robert Smithson made an earthwork sculpture constructed in April 1970 and is called Spiral Jetty. The sculpture is built of mud, precipitated salt crystals, and basalt rocks. It forms a 460 meters long, 4.6 m counterclockwise coil originally jutting from the shore of the lake, though due to the drying of the lake, as of 2022 a mile of lakebed separates Spiral Jetty from the shore. Depending upon the water level of the Great Salt Lake, the sculpture is sometimes visible and sometimes submerged.
