The Journey
The Tree of Utah
The Tree of Utah, also known as the Tree of Life, is a striking roadside sculpture that rises unexpectedly from the stark landscape of the Great Salt Lake Desert. Created by Swedish artist Karl Momen in 1986, this 87-foot-tall monument is a vibrant burst of color and form against the muted tones of the surrounding salt flats. Constructed primarily of concrete and adorned with natural rocks and minerals native to Utah, the tree features six spherical 'fruits' atop a sturdy trunk. The sculpture's creation was inspired by Momen's vision during a drive across the desolate landscape, symbolizing the triumph of life and art in an unexpected place. Visitors can admire the sculpture, read the inscription from Schiller's 'Ode to Joy,' and contemplate the artist's vision of bringing beauty to the barren landscape. A fence now protects the base, safeguarding both the art and its admirers. It's a must-see for anyone traveling through the area, offering a moment of reflection and a unique photo opportunity.
Bonneville Salt Flats
Experience the otherworldly expanse of the Bonneville Salt Flats, a vast, blindingly white plain formed from the remnants of an ancient lake. Stretching for miles near the Nevada border, this surreal landscape offers a truly unique and unforgettable experience. The stark beauty and extreme flatness of the salt flats have made it a popular destination for photographers, speed racers, and adventurers alike. Visitors can walk on the crunchy salt crust, take stunning panoramic photos, and even witness land speed records being broken. The seemingly endless horizon creates an optical illusion of being on another planet. Remember to wear sunglasses and sunscreen, as the sun's reflection off the salt can be intense. Whether you're seeking dramatic landscapes, thrilling speed records, or simply a chance to connect with nature in its rawest form, the Bonneville Salt Flats promises an unforgettable adventure.
