(Francisco Kjolseth | The Salt Lake Tribune) The Bureau of Land Management is dissuading people from visiting the vibrant blue potash production canal, located just east of the Bonneville Salt Flats, which has garnered attention recently as seen on Monday, June 22, 2020. "The canals are industrial facilities leased to Intrepid Potash for mining activities and are not designed or safe for public recreation," reads in part a statement by the BLM.
