Utah is largely a dry, inhospitable and barren landscape, yet it has become a home for a steadfast people who have created a distinctive culture. As early as around 400, present-day Utah was inhabited by the Anasazi and Pueblo Indians. Their society disintegrated long before the arrival of Spanish explorers in the 18th century, but their rock villages and pottery and rock paintings have been preserved. Then the Navajo and members of the Ute tribe settled here, many of whom still live here.
In 1848, the United States took over the area from Mexico. As early as 1847, Mormons began to settle in Utah under the leadership of religious leader Brigham Young (1801-77). These members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints have been forced to flee the persecution caused by their unconventional practices, especially polygamy. Their mission was to transform the desert landscape of the Great Salt Lake into a paradise. Thanks to continuous work and missionary zeal, large parts of the country were irrigated and Young’s vision was successfully completed after less than 15 years.
The local Indian population was not directly oppressed, but suffered from dwindling livelihoods. Subsequent conflicts led to his relocation to reservations. In the late 1990s, the Mormons created a stable and strong community, relying mainly on small agricultural cooperatives. The United States Congress repeatedly rejected Mormon requests to establish a state until 1896, when polygamy was officially rejected and the Mormon Church relinquished its political status. However, its dominant role in society persisted and the tradition of high work ethic and mutual assistance was a major factor that strengthened Utah’s economic development. See Utah abbreviation.
Even today, Mormon influence in society is evident, but more liberal conditions allow, for example, the admission of blacks as members of the church. Utah’s popular tourist centers and the prosperity of its capital, Salt Lake City, an important financial and commercial center, are living testimonies to the success of Mormon influence.
Deer Valley
The Deer Valley ski resort is located in the Utah Rocky Mountains in close proximity to City Park, which is known primarily as the venue for competitions in slalom and acrobatic skiing. In Deer Valley, as in other areas of the Rocky Mountains, a sufficient amount of quality snow is guaranteed throughout the season. On average, around 12 meters of snow cover falls here every year. However, the snow is also characterized by an extraordinary quality – it is dry, light and as if fluffy. It thus creates a great terrain for lovers of riding in powder. You don’t even have to worry about falling here, because this kind of snow guarantees a soft landing like a duvet. At Deer Valley, the number of tickets sold is limited each day, with a maximum of 6,500 skiers allowed on 1,750 acres of terrain. In addition to excellent skiing, skiers can also enjoy excellent services of all categories here. Accommodation offers a huge number of private houses that literally line the slopes. However, they are much too large for local needs and are unused and empty for most of the winter. Another attraction of the resort is the walkways leading from the parking lot to the restaurants, as they are heated, dry and free of snow.
