___OUR LOCAL HERITAGE___
In the early 1800s, Natrona, in the river valley below Natrona
Heights, had a booming salt industry with several salt wells.
The industry gave Natrona and Natrona Heights their name. Any
chemistry student can explain why. The formula for salt is
NaCl for Sodium Chloride. The Na is for Sodium, part of salt,
and the Latin root word for salt is natron-. Read more
