Gunnison Bay

This collection showcases Gunnison Bay in the northwestern part of Great Salt Lake, famous for its vibrant pink waters due to high salinity levels that support salt-tolerant bacteria, known as "extremophiles." The bay's isolation, intensified by a railroad causeway, and its surreal beauty despite mineral extraction, make it a unique ecological and visual attraction globally.
