Salt Lake City: First impressions

I haven't flown to many places. Only once outside of Canada, and a handful of times in Canada. So I don't have a lengthy resume of breathtaking landings from which to draw.

But the descent into Utah's capital is something else. Mountains, the Great Salt Lake, what appeared to be a huge network of marshes, and a sunset. If they didn't ask us to turn all electronics off as we hit 10,000 feet, I would have snapped a picture!

Here is a shot courtesy Google Maps that gives an idea. I didn't glide in from space, but you get the picture.
