Why you should go…

Antelope Island is the largest island in the Great Salt Lake, reached by a seven-mile causeway across the water. A free-roaming bison herd descended from animals introduced in 1893 shares the island with pronghorn, bighorn sheep and shorebirds. Beaches, hiking trails and the historic Fielding Garr Ranch round out the park.
