Stretching 160 miles through Utah, the Wasatch Range makes a rugged, glacial backdrop for the 85% of the states population living within 15 miles. Mount Nebo is highest at 11,928 feet, but the peaks around Alta and Park City are most popular. "The greatest snow on earth" falls on these spectacular slopes. Lone Peaks granite outcrops provide top climbing. Canyons and valleys are loved by fly-fishermen and hikers. After all that adventure, retire to a hip restaurant or enticing hot tub in chic Park City.

I was very impressed at how beautiful the building and grounds were. We really enjoyed our visit. It was very quite and peaceful, and has a special feeling about it.

Free admission to view a beautiful and thoughtfully designed stained glass wall in the University library. It is well lighted in the afternoons when the sun is in the west. There are limits on the number of visitors right now. We have been there multiple times and enjoy it each time. The team that created the windows works out of a studio at Thanksgiving Point and a tour there is also interesting.

For 50 years this stately and historic depot served as a major hub for transcontinental rail service. Today, it remains a monument to grand rail stations of the early 20th-century and includes four museums: the Utah State Railroad Museum, the Natural History Museum, the Browning Kimball Car Museum and the Browning Firearms Museum.
We had a rainy day to kill in Ogden and found this place very interesting and well done. They have done a great job preserving a very beautiful building. The history of the building of the Transcontinental Railway was well covered. Kids would love the model trains. The cars in automobile museum were beautiful. The cowboy museum was small but with a few minutes. We skipped the gun museum. The location is good, right at the end of the historic 25th street where you can grab food and shop.

Can’t miss in the downtown area! There are a lot of cool shops. I like Lavender Vinyl, Endless Indulgence, and Two Bit Street for food. If you have mobility issues, the parking for handicap spots can fill up and not all buisiness are built equally if you require some accommodations.

Historic Park City is the gem among riches. Nestled in the valley flanked by Park City Mountain Resort on one side, and Deer Valley on the other, it is the heart and soul of our mountain town and the epicenter of all that is fun and wild. Historic Park City’s has a rich and storied past: it began as a raucous silver town, nearly faded into history as a ghost town, and then re-invented itself as a ski town that grew into a world-class destination and host to global events such as the 2002 Winter Olympics and the Sundance Film Festival. At the center of Historic Park City is Main Street--home to over 200 unique businesses. Visitors can shop among at independent boutiques, dine at one-of-a-kind restaurants, relax at a restorative spa, ride the town lift to play in the mountains, stay in style within a short walk of everything, revel in our spirited nightlife, discover something to treasure from our lively art community, and connect with loved ones with memorable experiences.
You do not need to shop or buy anything for this to be a great place to visit. There is a museum to wonder thru and window shopping and plenty to look at for this to be a safe, quaint, fun experience for the WHOLE FAMILY!

“The Stump” artisan well has been around for many years. The well was drilled about 1930 by Clarence Barker for irrigation purposes. In the summer of 1931 Joe Ballif, who had a hamburger stand, had a portion of the well water piped to a spot just north of his stand. He obtained a cottonwood tree trunk and had the stump turned into a drinking fountain.
