Looks like you drove til it was time to stop and just stopped in your tracks. :) I like how your tracks add to that picture.

What was it like camping on the flats open like that? How far into the flats were you? I've not driven on them beyond just a little bit off the highway to see what it was like one trip, any traction issues? Surprised you made that much of a track.
Actually it wasn't too bad driving out there. You are not allowed to camp on the salt flats itself but just prior to it, there is the mud flats. You can camp on the Mud flats . There is so much salt that only the top couple inches in dry weather crack. Good grip. We went in August. Wasn't hot at all. And then I did my 90 miles an hour on the salt flats. They were having a rocket launch stuff the week I was there. The following week, was the Speed record races. It took $10 in coins to wash off my undercarriage.

Haha - I hadn't even thought about that part of it. Wow, salt got everywhere I bet. Interesting about the salt versus the mud. Didn't know about those differences. Seems like it would be an interesting and different place to camp.
