Pink, salty water, and very white, shiny, salty grounds! West side of the Great Salt Lake. (I don't have an exact location to it to share as of yet.)
These are the official "salt flats" of Utah. Beautiful and very open salt flats! About an hour out west from where I'm located, along I-80, right before you hit Wendover. Because of the distance, a travel fee of $100 is added for this location. Click here to see this location on Google Maps.
Just a little past Saltair along a dirt, roughy road is a big rock called Black Rock. Provides a cool, rocky, beachy setting. Click here to see this location on Google Maps.
A unique setting to northern Utah, along the southern outskirts of the Great Salt Lake, is The Great Saltair - a once booming recreation site, now a concert and event venue. (look up its history online!) This location provides both the setting of a cool, unique building feature, along with tall grass, and the beachy, sandy (salty) look of the Great Salt Lake. Definitely one of my local "hot spots" and a highly requested location! Also a good "alternative" to the actual Bonneville Salt Flats. Click here to see this location on Google Maps.
