Itinerary
Combine your trip to the Great Salt Lake with what I consider the only way to visit it by experiencing Antelope Island. This little known island is teaming with wildlife, and you can't get the quiet of wilderness by simply visiting it near I-80. We will spot for the wild herd of 600 American Bison roaming the island. Amongst the Bison we'll watch for coyote, bobcat, antelope, porcupine, big-horn sheep, mule deer and if the season is right up to 200,000 migratory birds. You can truly experience Nature in its finest form on this beautiful island. After wildlife spotting, we'll hike to Buffalo Point on the Island to watch the sunset and take in the breathtaking views. *Bug Season (April-June) We have bug spray for the mosquitos, and hats/bug nets for the biting gnats. Midges do not bite. The Hike is .9 miles round trip. It has a couple steep parts on dirt, but it's very well traveled. I would designate this as a moderate hiking difficulty, which is less than a mile. The Tour Vehicle is a High Roof 12 Passenger Mercedes Sprinter Passenger Van marked with Sunnyside Expeditions. It was great large windows in the back for Wildlife viewing. There is bathroom availability
