Founded by Mormon leaders and the Salt Lake, Garfield and Western Railway, as an alternative to the "Gentile" resorts on the Great Salt Lake, Saltair has been the most successful of all of these resorts, and now in its third incarnation, after the previous were both destroyed by fires. Saltair also played a starring role in the horror film, 'Carnival of Souls.' This color view is of Saltair II (1925-1970).
"Located on the shores of the Great Salt Lake, one of the world's wonders, Saltair is 15 miles west of Salt Lake City. Built on thousands of piles and extending out into the lake, it offers a fine amusement park and picnicking facilities, lunch and refreshment stands, one of the largest unobstructed dance floors in the world and bathing in the briny waters of the Great Salt Lake where you float like a cork." - from the back.
