Salt Flats by

Bonneville Salt Flats

Imagine a place so flat you seem to see the curvature of the planet, so barren not even the simplest life forms can exist. Imagine the passing thunder of strange vehicles hurtling by on a vast, dazzling white plain. This is to an alien world far from earth; it is Utah’s famous Bonneville Salt Flats.
The Bonneville Salt Flats is one of the most unique natural features in Utah. Stretching over 30,000 acres, the Bonneville Salt Flats is a fragile resource administered by the Bureau of Land Management.
Thousands of visitors, commercial film makers, and of course, high-speed auto racers, make the Bonneville Salt Flats a world famous destination.
Record speed was set at 622.4 Miles per hour with a rocket car.
Movies have also been staged around this place such as Warlock, Independence Day, SLC Punk, Cremaster 2 from Cremaster Cycle, The Brown Bunny, The World’s Fastest Indian, Gerry and Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End.
