💡 Tips from Dan
Your Road Warrior Guide
- •When visiting the Saltair Resort Ruins, the best times are during spring (April to June) and fall (September to October) when the weather is mild and the surrounding scenery is stunning. Wear sturdy shoes for exploring the uneven terrain, and consider bringing a light jacket, as lakeside breezes can be chilly. Don’t forget your camera; the haunting architecture and surrounding landscapes provide fantastic photo opportunities, especially during golden hour just before sunset. Be respectful of the site, as it is a historical landmark; avoid climbing on fragile structures and leave no trace behind. Lastly, be aware of local wildlife, including snakes, and always stay aware of your surroundings to ensure a safe and enjoyable visit.
