Disarmingly pleasant and easygoing, SALT LAKE CITY is well worth
a stopover of a couple of days. It's not a particularly thrilling
destination in itself, but its setting is superb, towered over by
the Wasatch Front , which marks the dividing line between the comparatively
lush eastern and the bone-dry western halves of northern Utah, and
which offers great hiking or cycling in summer and fall and, in
winter, some of the world's best skiing. Salt Lake City's bid to
raise its international profile by hosting the 2002 Winter Olympics
resulted in a major building program both in the city itself and
in the surrounding ski valleys, plus an unwelcome notoriety following
the taint of corruption that surrounded its selection. Nonetheless,
though people elsewhere in the US still tend to imagine Salt Lake
City as decidedly short on spontaneous public fun, so long as you're
willing to switch gears and slow down, its unhurried pace, and the
positive energy and lack of pretence of its people, can make for
a surprisingly enjoyable experience.
