Utah, the Beehive
State, was first visited by Spanish Franciscan monks in 1776. American
fur trappers were the next visitors, and the first settlers, the Mormons,
arrived in 1847. The Mormons turned Utah into a Nation--State called the
State of Deseret, and were let into the United States in 1896. Scenic attractions include Temple Square, the Mormon Church Headquarters in Salt Lake City; the Great Salt Lake; fishing streams, lakes and reservoirs; and skiing. Natural wonders list such areas as Zion, Canyonlands; Dinosaur, Rainbow Bridge; Timpanogos Cave; Natural Bridges National Monument; Lake Powell; and Flaming George Reservoirs. |
