Thanx a lot for all your responses, people. After reading through all this, the chances of us choosing to make Utah the first stop on our trip, have definitely increased.
Skiing is something I have been thinking of doing in Utah, as you definitely have a lot better ski resorts than we do in Norway. We have a lot of resorts, but noen that can compare to the ones in the Switzerland og Austria. I`ve watched a lot of alpine skiing from the US on tv, and have alwyas wanted to ski there. The problem is that I haven`t been doing much skiing for 20 years. Having just passed 40, it could get real ugly if I end up on the wrong course.
Regarding drinking laws and religion, I grew up in a small town where I was raised in a pentecostal church. You weren`t allowed to buy even beer in the town, so I know a bit about how that works.
I really appreciate all of your efforts to show me what to do in Salt Lake. We`ll make some decisions this weekend. If we choose to travel to Salt Lake, I`ll most definitely take up some of your offers to meet up.
Thanx again.
