Have you ever been here?
I just saw this on an art site I was looking at and wondered if anyone had ever seen it first hand?
I'd never heard of it, although I have heard of the lake it's located at.
I'd love to go there one day.
It looks awesome.

Robert Smithson's monumental earthwork, Spiral Jetty (1970,) on the Great Salt Lake in Utah has become a signature piece of early land art. Using black basalt rocks and mud from the site, the artist created a spiral 450 metres (500 yards) long and 4.5 metres (5 yards) wide that stretches out anti-clockwise into the translucent red water. Although remote and often submerged under the rising and falling levels of the lake, the work still attracts thousands of visitors every year
