Salt Lake City, Utah

globusgrandtetonsSalt Lake City is a fantastic jumping-off point to renowned Utah ski resorts like Park City and Snowbird, as well as to the Yellowstone/Grand Tetons, Zion and Grand Canyon national parks. Unique lake effects from the Great Salt Lake produce amazing light, dry snow that makes for outstanding area skiing, and creates beautiful snows capes all around the city. No wonder the 2002 Olympic Winter Games were held in this city.

Salt Lake City is nestled in a valley at the foot of two mountain ranges. In spring, the canyons are adorned with wildflowers and waterfalls. During summer, hiking, rock climbing, and mountain biking are just minutes away. A blaze of brilliant foliage erupts on canyon walls in autumn. Daily sunshine, low humidity and mountain breezes combine for a comfortable year-round climate
