It is not a well known place. It is in the Great Salt Lake on the west side of Antelope Island. The lake is about 3 times saltier than the Pacific so it allows for paddling all winter. Like many terminal salt lakes it has a lot of brine flies in the summer and the shores tend to have biting gnats so winter is a good time to paddle. My son and I came across this small stretch of interesting rocks about 14 years ago I am not sure what inspired the name of that particular rock but I am the guilty party that named it. There is a trail about 1,000 feet higher up the island that follows the shoreline created during the Lake Bonneville era of the lake the trail loops down to maybe 300 feet above these rocks but off trailing is not allowed so kayak is about the only way to get there. The rule for kayaks is they can get off on the shore but can't go beyond the shoreline, Good news is they do not specify which shoreline. It is not exactly a tourist destination but if you are ever in Utah in the winter let me know, if I can get away from work and life commitments I will take you there.
