Exploring Other-worldly Terrain Outside of Salt Lake City, UT

To some extent every kid dreams of walking on the moon. It’s impossible for most. But the Bonneville Salt Flats are the next best thing.

This video is from a salt flats in Bolivia, but the Bonneville flats in Utah have the same effect (with mountains added to the mix):

The colors that bounce off the salt flats at sunrise and sunset are out of this world.

The salt flats in Utah are used for regular world-record-setting land speed tests because they’re so uniformly flat.

Whether you’re a master lensman/woman or just want to pretend you’re on another planet for a moment, you’re going to love the salt flats.

And, of course, get the drone’s-eye view:

Experience the best of Salt Lake City and Utah with Travel Utah

There’s a reason they say “Life is Elevated in Utah.” There are tons of things to do not far from Salt Lake City.

When you’re looking to sleep under the stars there are lots of great sites right outside of the city. Take the Mountainlands for instance. It’s such a small region of Utah, but has a great array of campsites in Wasatch, Summit, and Utah Counties.

And being situated in the heart of the Rockies has given many of the roads the Scenic Byway and Scenic Backway designations.
