I was in SLC Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. I went to a Petsmart down on 105th South, and a Petco in Sugar House .... and I was thinking, "Hmmmmm ... wonder if this is where Wolf_Q works?" I was also thinking that I should have thought about telling you I was coming down, and we could have gotten together for lunch or something. Of course, this occurred to me in Layton.

Question for you: I heard someone say once that the water on one side of the causeway in the GSL is salty and the other side is fresh. Is that true??? I thought the whole lake was salty.
Yes you should have told me! We were in SLC (mostly at the Gateway) on Monday. The Petco I work at is clear down in Utah County, I live in Pleasant Grove (near Orem/Provo) but I've been to the ones up there before. Next time you're coming this way, let me know.

As far as the Great Salt Lake I don't know all that much but I believe that all of the lake is salty. Antelope Island is kinda near the bottom edge of the lake, so the Causeway to the island doesn't separate the lake. However, I've seen pics where there's a distinct line across the entire lake where part is darker colored. Maybe half is freshwater, that's possible or maybe half just has a higher salt concentration? I guess I should know these things, but I don't...that was only the 2nd time I've been to Antelope Island in my life.
