Algae (?) patterns in the shallows along the #GreatSaltLake shoreline. #photography #AntelopeIsland #FremontIsland #utah

Antelope Island harbor on the Great Salt Lake. This used to be full of water and boats, as harbors usually are. Now the water is so far back you can barely see it in the far corner of this photo. This year the lake hit another record low level. #GreatSaltLake #utah #drought #waterconservation

Few more photos from our Great Salt Lake Bicycle Adventure. I will amend the previous Pro Tip:

Do not go after weeks of rain UNLESS you want to see a series of amazing reflections in the shallow pools and mudflats created by such rain showers. All the way across - 7 miles worth.

FYI the reflecting pools you see here are all less than an inch or so deep - many less than 1/2 or 1/4 inch. It's a thin, thin sheet of water on a very, very flat lake bed.

You won't see this when conditions are drier!

Trip to Fremont Island across the former Great Salt Lake lake bed. Pro tip: Do not go right after a major series of rainstorms when the lake bed has been turned to muddy goo. #bicycling #gravelcycling #GreatSaltLake #utah #FremontIsland #AntelopeIsland

Little gravel/mud action at Farmington Bay yesterday. #gravel #gravelcycling #utah #GreatSaltLake #daviscounty #wildliferefuge #recumbent

@mguhlin @KCVeteran It doesn't usually get down to -10, -20, -30 arena, so you can leave those at home.

Highs in the 30s to 40s would be most typical.
