SALT LAKE CITY |
| |
| 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. 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.
