Description
Photograph of about 30 swimmers floating in the Great Salt Lake in demonstration of the natural buoyancy of the water in front of the large old Saltair Pavilion, Utah, [s.d.]. Many of them hold their feet and hands above the surface of the water. The large Byzantine-style pavilion can be seen in the center. Several tall towers stick up from its perimeter, and covered balconies are visible on both of its stories. The pavilion is built on a long pier that stretches from right to left.
