Things to do in and around the salt

[domr]

I'm coming over from the Uk for this years speed week (not taking part this time. ..) there is obviously a lot going on the salt but is there anything worth checking out in the vicinity or even on the way in from Salt lake city?

Cheers

I recommend that you take a look at the ruins of Wendover Field. The Enola Gay hangar is still standing ... Joe

[Glen]

Joe and list. An update on Wendover Field is there is a small museum open daily. Also some re construction has started on the the hanger and more funding is needed. This is such a historical place and should be preserved.
I first saw it it in 1953 and didn't take any pictures as I sure wished I had done at that time. There are a couple of books out and sold at the museum and the visitors center in town. That should be visited as well. The Nugget hotel has a lot of great pictures on the 2 nd floor by the Bonneville room.

Speaking of the Enola Gay, the 14th is the anniversary. Wayno

August 6 is the Enola Gay anniversary and August 9 is the Bockscar anniversary. The Bockscar was the airplane that dropped last.

Some copy cats named their record holding lakester after that project.

See if u can find the car on the Salt this year.

They will let u look at it if u offer refreshments.

They do some scuba diving certification at Blue Lake a few miles south of Wendover on the way to Ely.  Just off the road to the east.

Oops. You're right. I don't know what I was looking at.  Wayno

Hey Dom, Lots of Kiwi's & Ozzy's on the salt & prob Brit's. Look for the flags flying & stop buy. Everybody's middle name on the salt is 'havachat'. We're all there for the same reason. Sid.

Hey Dom,
Fellow Brits will be there with the Flower of Scotland Streamliner, she's long, thin and very green.
Make sure you come find us and say hello?? Pull up a chair?
Cheers
