Utah’s Pink Lake 📍North Arm of Great Salt Lake at the Spiral Jetty The pink appearance of this part of Great Salt Lake is caused by “Archaea,” an organism that survives in the 30% salinity here and uses pink protein that captures light and turns it into energy. You can access this part of the lake at Rozel Point Peninsula. It’s free to access, dogs are allowed and there’s a parking lot. It’s about a mile out to the water so bring sunscreen, plan on wind and check the forecast. #utah #greatsaltl
