The photo below shows parts of the salt crust cracking and forming ruts in the mud. If we had more time, we would’ve done sunset at the rest stop, spent the night in Wendover, and shot sunrise the next morning at the speedway. The I-80 is heavily-patrolled by Idaho State Troopers, and the speed limit is 75mph… so traffic is flying. While some people illegally use the “emergency vehicle only” U-turn options, it’s a risk. You can park here or drive out onto the flats. You will find a BLM (Bureau of Land Management) sign about four miles north of the exit. Take Exit 4, the last exit before or first exit after the Nevada state line. While you can easily get back on the I-80 heading east… the next closest exit you can use to turn around is half-an-hour away! So it’ll literally take an hour to get from the speedway back to the rest stop… even though “as the crow flies” it’s only four miles. The Bonneville Salt Flats are located about 100 miles west of the Utah capital of Salt Lake City, just off Interstate 80. If you decide to then go to the speedway site, be prepared for a long drive back around to the rest stop. If you’re driving from SLC, you’ll hit the rest stop first.

The I-80 doesn’t have exits in the area which allow you to easily go between the two sites. Great Salt Lake State Park is located at the south end of the lake and about 16 miles west of Salt Lake City. Suggested duration 1-2 hours Suggest edits to improve what we show. This is important to keep in mind: if you’re aiming for sunset photos, you need to pick one of the spots ahead of time and commit.
