Salt flats outside of Salt Lake City, Utah

Heading out of Salt Lake City towards Battle Mountain, Nevada I hit the salt flats. Most notably the Bonneville salt flats which is the site of the world land speed record runs. I seem to recall that there's a movie with Anthony Hopkins about it but I'm too lazy to google it so if you really wanna know feel free to look it up yourself  :) Of course I had to taste the salt and it's like salt x 1000000. Super dooper salty. And satisfyingly crunchy underfoot too.


Salt storm just before the flats, very windy at this gas station stop
