This week Scott and I had the special treat of interviewing Charles Uibel. He is one of the most talented photographers in the Salt Lake area, and has taken some amazing pictures of the Great Salt Lake. Little about the lake is known, or explored by the general public, but Charles took the time to enlighten us. To listen to the mp3 version click here
