Private Property Locations
The following locations have instructions not to publish on their properties.
- Daybreak (Salt Lake County). We will publish only on private property, not in public areas.are seeing two different opinions. One is that security is saying no, the other from management that it may be ok. I would check with management before listing.
- Kennecott Copper Properties (Salt Lake and Tooele Counties) Some areas of High Voltage transmission lines were requested - The kennecott Copper Properties, Rio Tinto, or whatever the properties are, do not want caches or tresspassing. That is a lot of the mountain west of Salt Lake Valley. Check Tooele and Salt Lake County parcel maps if you are unsure. This includes caches on roadways through their property.
- Some High Voltage transmission line right of ways 9not just the towers) were requested by the power company to be off limits in West Salt Lake County.
