Are there any rivers out of the Great Salt Lake?

Are there any rivers out of the Great Salt Lake? If so, why is it still salty? Shouldn't the salt have drained away by now?Are there any rivers out of the Great Salt Lake?
It has no outlet besides evaporation
i don't think so, and if there are, they have a very low flow.



if memory serves me, there are none. which is why the salt isn't draining.Are there any rivers out of the Great Salt Lake?
No streams flow out of the Great Salt Lake (and only a few flow in). This is why the lake is salty. Because the lake has no outlet, the water that enters stays there until it evaporates, leaving behind any dissolved minerals (salts). So over time, the lake water becomes increasingly salty.



Because the Great Salt Lake has no outlet, no salt is carried away. At times of high evaporation and low inflow, the salinity of the lake rises. At high enough salinity levels, some salt probably precipitates out to the bottom of the lake, which would put an upper limit on the maximum salinity of the Great Salt Lake.
Nope. There are no outlets to the Great Salt Lake. Water flows into the lake from the Bear, Weber, and Jordan Rivers, carrying minute amounts of dissolved salts. As the water evaporates, the salts are left behind.



The lake itself is bisected by a railroad causeway. North of the causeway, the lake is much saltier than south of the causeway. There are two culverts through the causeway for the waters from the north and south sections of the lake to mix - but natural mixing is very inefficient.
