Flying MDW-SLC, Friday


Most of this flight is uneventful, as our routing just takes us over Mid-
America. However, as we approach the Salt Lake Basin, we get a good view
of the Inversion fog rolling in. The Inversion is a winter phenomenon wher the snow and ice on the valley floor evaporates and the air is trapped in the valley by the mountains on each side. The water from the Great Salt Lake also goes
through the condensation process adding to the Inversion. We actually had to make 2 attempts to land due to the denseness of the fog.
