The mountains are an integral part of life for most Salt Lakers, providing a reprieve from the heat in the summer and endless options for recreating in the winter.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Located on the northwest side of the valley is the city\u2019s namesake landmark, the Great Salt Lake. It\u2019s the largest saltwater lake in the Western Hemisphere at about 75 miles long and 35 miles wide. You can hike, bike, camp, go horseback riding, and see free-ranging bison along the lake at Antelope Island State Park. You can even swim in the lake at Bridger Bay Beach\u2014though it\u2019s more floating than swimming due to the lake\u2019s high salinity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;re a fan of downhill skiing, the Wasatch Mountains offer some great slopes and Brighton, Alta, and Park City, all within 45 minutes of the city. Or, in about an hour, you can be at Sundance and Powder Mountain.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4) Picturesque neighborhoods<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether you want to live in the hustle and bustle of the city or a quiet neighborhood, Salt Lake City has it all.
