From the desolate Great Salt Lake and the soaring Wasatch Mountains in the north to the surreal landscapes of Arches, Canyonlands, and Zion National Parks in the south, the Beehive State (an allusion to the industrious Mormon pioneers that founded her) offers a seemingly endless horizon of wide-open spaces for hikers, bikers, skiiers . . . and just about everyone else.
For the otherworldly landscape, the friendly people, and the "Greatest Snow on Earth."
