Not again!!!!!

I just saw that the  NEW sign has been stolen!!!



TOOELE COUNTY, Utah ? A newly-installed sign marking the Bonneville Salt Flats was stolen recently, and Utah's Bureau of Land Management wants it back.

The department sent out a shot of the missing sign over social media Wednesday.

According to the post, the theft of the sign is a Class A misdemeanor punishable by up to 12 months in prison and $1,000 in fines.

Found west of the Great Salt Lake, the 30,000+ acre Bonneville Salt Flats is one of the most unique locations in the state.

Anyone with information on the stolen sign is asked to call the Salt Lake Field Office of the Bureau of Land Management at 801-977-4387 or email them at utslmail@blm.gov.

That's crazy and criminal. I really hope they catch the thieves and they end up in jail.

The old sign was replaced because it was being vandalized and idiots were putting stickers all over it. In recent photos it was full of stickers AGAIN! Just disgusting.

I managed to peel the stickers off of it shortly after it was erected when I passed through back in January.  But I would guess zillions more were added since.  Maybe they should surround the next one with razor wire.

While they're at it maybe they can get some of the salt back, too.

Speaking of irony...The Bureau has no regard for the land's history, yet they included The Morman Meteor on their sign. :x
