John;

Some of the salt area didn't look much-- if any-- worse than Bonneville, but
photos of other parts of the Salar look like it would be hopeless.

I just wondered if anyone had investigated the Chile/Bolivia salt flats and,
if so, what he found.

"Salar de Atacama"

Now, those are some serious pressure ridges! How long
do you think it would take to rake them smooth?
