The chart says the controlling authority is ZLC Center. That's Salt Lake
ARTCC, right?
So if I'm flying VFR, what do I do?
Do I find any low alt freq to the SLC ARTCC in the AF/D and call "Salt
Lake
Center. 1234X Request transition through R12345"

Oh yeah, how do we know you are not a terrorist *smile*.

You don't know.


Or work for a terrorist that doesn't want to fly....

I would suspect the area would be restricted for photo opportunities as
well, so taking snapshots may be one of the reasons for restricted
airspace.

Why else would you want to overfly a restricted area? Inquiring minds
like to know....

If you've ever been flying around SLC, you'd see three things.
1. Class B.
2. Mountains 10000 MSL tall
3. Restricted Airspace.

Basically If something is not #2, then it is #3 or #1
So it's good to get to know the ins and outs of about 50% of my airspace.
