Walked Fri 12/06/24 – Have not been out here on the salt flats for a long time and forgot just how unique a place it is. Despite a full parking lot in the late afternoon, I found myself alone in the middle where it gives you the sense of a “reverse summit” where everything is much higher than the flat, expansive plane you’re standing (or sitting) on. The flats would be an ideal place to watch the sunrise or sunset with parking most likely being much easier.
