So, we’re moving. Right now the wife and I are scouting out some homes, but we’re interested in seeing who some nearby Dopers are.

So, are any cool Dopesters in the Ogden/Salt Lake City area?

We’ll be out there all permanent like in the near, near future.

Welcome—Though I am new around here (but read the board for years before signing up) I have spent the majority of my life in SLC…

I love live music, travel and exploring the natural beauty of Utah, so if you need any advice on entertainment options here behind the “Zion Curtain”, a quick primer on the wierdo liquor laws, or just a heads up on the best burrito in town, make sure to let me know!!!

I live in Salt Lake. It’s a surprisingly fun place to live. Lots of things to do. Lots of good food. Lots of fun places to camp/hike/boat/fish.

I’m only an hour and 1/2 away over the border in Wyoming. Welcome to the neighborhood. I am very familiar with both places, and would love to meet you some time.

Hill, is it? My mom & step dad work there as civilian airplane mechanics.

It’s pretty, when I visited. Good luck!

Awesome! We’re headed back to the East for the time being, but yup, we like the area–I’m looking forward to getting “lost” in the Wasatch for a few days. I think we’ve settled on a place nearby, but are going to be looking for ‘weekend/family stuff’ to do.

Tell me about downtown SLC. What kind of museums and theaters are there? Also, is there any hockey (probably minor league) around?

Much obliged for the
