Combining the amenities of a major metropolitan area with the friendliness of a small, western city, Salt Lake City is fast becoming one of America 's foremost destinations – and for good reason. A beautiful, safe, and vibrant city, Salt Lake combines unparalleled access to natural recreation, a bustling economy, dynamic nightlife, remarkable history, warm hospitality, and Utah 's Greatest Snow on Earth!

Salt Lake is nestled in a valley at the foot of two mountain ranges – the Wasatch to the east and the Oquirrhs to the west. Daily sunshine, low humidity, and refreshing mountain breezes combine for a comfortable year-round climate. Hosting the Olympic Winter Games of 2002 enhanced the community's profile as a world-class travel destination, while showcasing Salt Lake as an unspoiled, family-friendly destination.
