Salt Lake City Junkyard

by jd on August 2, 2008

I have always been fascinated by auto junkyards and have wanted for years to take the time to photograph some. Here are a half dozen shots from a salvage yard near the airport in Salt Lake City.

I have gazed at this junkyard many times from the air because it is visible from the left hand side of the aircraft on approach.

The yard was closed so the photos were taken from outside the fence, which is fitting because one reason these places entice me is they seem off limits, as if I’m trespassing.

the junkyard is fascinating. I had not thought about all the neat designs one could create from touring a junkyard.

Nice pictures.
