Utah - Antelope Island

 Fruita CO to Salt Lake City UT today. We went  to Antelope Island in the afternoon. This is an island in the Great Salt Lake that had an active ranch until about 1980. There are Bison and Coyotes, which we saw, and prong horn antelope which we did not see. There is a mountain on the island that goes up 2000 feet. The lake is large but not very deep and very salty. Only shrimp and a type of Brine Fly can exist in the lake. The ranch is open to view and there is a lot of equipment there that was left.
