The Saltair resort, on the edges of the Great Salt Lake near Salt Lake City, was a destination resort of sorts long before such categories were spoken of. Once a place where people could go and revel in their (literal) buoyancy in the highly saline waters of the Great Salt Lake, the resort has been forced to turn to sand bags and nearly has succumbed to flooding as the Salt Lake level began rising in the mid-1980s. For a time there was concern that the precipitation in the Wasatch Front, which eventually drains into the Great Salt Lake, might threaten Salt Lake City itself. That hasn't happened, but it has been a wild ride.
