Best Answer

Many salt production locations were inland from a waterway. The Union would dock and send a raiding party to destroy Confederate salt locations. The problem the Union faced was that the kettles used in producing salt were too heavy to be carried away. Also, they were difficult to destroy because the metal kettles often were from one to three inches thick.
