Visit Salt Lake

Salt Lake is the place where the Wasatch mountain peaks frame city streets. Sure, Salt Lake's famed for our winter powder ([four legendary ski resorts](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/things-to-do/skiing-snowboarding/) just 30 minutes from downtown), but that's just one season's story. Summer brings families [hiking through wildflower meadows](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/things-to-do/outdoor-recreation/) before cooling off at a Jazz game or the Gateway fountains. Autumn paints our mountain canyons in gold, perfect for morning strolls that end at local coffee shops. Spring? That's when you might spot baby bison on Antelope Island before heading to the Eccles Theater for a Broadway show. Our soaring Wasatch Mountains rise dramatically from downtown Salt Lake, creating a place where every day offers both natural wonders and urban energy. And while we sit perfectly between the [national parks](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/things-to-do/outdoor-recreation/state-national-parks/) with Yellowstone's geysers and Utah's red rock country, the real magic happens right here, where everyone can [discover the history](https://www.visitsaltlake.com/plan-your-visit/about-salt-lake/) of the city as they find their own rhythm between mountain adventure and city life.

D’Arc (retired, BYU).In a series featuring great heroes and momentous events, this film stands apart. Its main character is a traitor to his country. He may seem an odd choice, but in an era of nation-building it is as important to have villains as it is to have heroes. And loyalty to country is an especially charged subject in an era of revolutionary change, when everyone’s loyalties were suspect. Let’s talk about the bad guys of the revolutionary era: they deserve some love as well. Who doesn’t love a good traitor?Historian Eric Hinderaker is Distinguished Professor of History and department chair at the University of Utah, where he has taught early American history for 35 years.
