Additional comments: As of the publishing of this video, you need a Utah State Trust Lands permit to go here and collect. This is, of course subject to change in the future and I have included those files you need down below.
It’s also a good idea to check in with https://trustlands.utah.gov/ before submitting your permit.
When submitting your permit, the location information you put in should read:
Township: 27 South
Range: 9 West
Section 2
Legal Description: Salt Lake Principal Meridian
