"It is a combination of the past, the present and the future which makes Utah a state of absorbing interest for the tourist and the traveler. Utah's green and fertile valleys - most of them 4000 feet and higher above sea level - nestle against peaks wearing their age-old mantle of perpetual snow. The new and the old shoulder each other in the constant growth and change of a progressive commonwealth. Yet, underlying the present scene is the feeling of history near at hand - the pervading hospitality of a modern people with the eager and open-handed welcome of the true West."
