TOOELE COUNTY, Utah — A newly-installed sign marking the Bonneville Salt Flats was stolen recently, and Utah's Bureau of Land Management wants it back.

The department sent out a shot of the missing sign over social media Wednesday.

According to the post, the theft of the sign is a Class A misdemeanor punishable by up to 12 months in prison and $1,000 in fines.

Found west of the Great Salt Lake, the 30,000+ acre Bonneville Salt Flats is one of the most unique locations in the state.
