24x36 inches, (61x91cm), scale 1:195 000. Salt Lake City, state capital, N central Utah, on the Jordan River and near the Great Salt Lake, at the foot of the Wasatch Range. The largest city in the state, it is a great regional center, world headquarters of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and the processing point for products of an irrigated farm region that is rich in minerals. The prominence of the gigantic Temple on Temple Square at the citys heart reflects the Mormon nature of Salt Lake City. Of interest are the state capitol, Brigham Youngs home (the Beehive House), the brigham Young Monument, and a planetarium.
