Combine your trip to the Great Salt Lake with what I consider to be the only way to visit it, which is by going to the beautiful Antelope Island, where you can truly experience nature in its finest form. You can't get to the quiet of the wilderness by simply visiting it near Interstate 80, we need to really go in! You'll soon see discover that this little known island is teaming with wildlife. We will be on the lookout to spot a wild herd of 600 American Bison roaming the island. Amongst the Bison, we'll also keep our eyes open for coyote, bobcat, antelope, porcupine, big-horn sheep, mule deer and, if the season is right, up to 500,000 migratory birds! Besides wildlife spotting, this tour also includes a hike to a panoramic lookout point on the Island, where we could soak in the breathtaking views and maybe even get to watch the sunset. I can't tell you how much I love this place and look forward to sharing it's beauty with you!
·After picking you up, we'll drive to the causeway out to Antelope Island. ·Along our way, we'll get to view some of the millions of birds that migrate through the Great Salt Lake every year. ·Later, we'll drive down the east side of the island, which happens to have virtually no trees, so it's guaranteed that we'll see Bison out in the open! We'll also seek to see Antelope, Coyote, Fox, Badger and Big Horn Sheep. ·Then we'll reach the north end of the island, where we'll step out of our vehicle and begin to hike to an altitude point to view the Great Salt Lake. ·As we trek, there's chances to see more Bison, Antelope and Chukars! ·On arrival, we'll enjoy sweeping 360 degree views of The Great Salt Lake and Great Basin Geology through sage brush and conglomerate rock deposits. An incredible view over looking 200 miles of wilderness for the Sunset is stunning. ·Afterwards, we’ll hike back to the van and drive back to Salt Lake City to be dropped off at the same location you were picked up from.
