The Bonneville Salt Flats of the western Great Salt Lake Desert were formed through the evaporation of the Pleistocene-era Lake Bonneville.

The flats are composed mainly of potash salts ranging in thickness from less than one inch to six feet.

It is one of the most consistently flat areas on earth, which makes it the ideal home for landspeed record attempts.
