The camera on the salt flats

[kiwi belly tank]

When I see these pics, I wonder what it looked like there 50 years ago.
Could the mud still be seen thru the brine back when the salt was thicker?

No, it's only been 10yrs or so since it got so thin that you can see through it.

After all the wind, the salt had leveled out enough to spot new tracks across the salt on Thursday afternoon (Mar. 20th).

Looks like there is a couple of vehicles out on the salt.

I was just in Moab, Utah for a few days. Intrepid has a setup there too.

Intrepid sucked so hard the camera went down the drain along with the BLM & Brenda Bowen & I last saw them passing the road sign to Hell....... then I woke up.

Don't think I've ever seen it look like this:

I was about to say the same.  Ripples on the water.

Checked it several times today, and the texture was different every time. THIS is how the salt gets leveled.

Don't think I've ever seen it look like this:

The pattern is unusual, but what about the color?  How much salt is there in that picture?

Looks like this one is around 5pm on the 8th.

I'm hoping it looks like this because the sun is not shining on the ripples making it look dark. We know there was a lot of dirt from lands end to over a mile in last year with no salt. Hoping this is not the case from what we are seeing in these pictures.

Pretty wild pics. We're getting 2.5" of rain today in mid TN. Thats half a year's worth at the BSF.

This frame seems to back up "smirking Brenda the pseudo-scientist" claim that the salt washes down from the mountains.... Wow look at all that salt on the top of that mountain...  aktion086  aktion086  aktion086
