The determined Mormons, however, made the desert bloom through their hard work and skill. The descendents of these original settlers still make up a majority of Utah's residents</div>The land of Utah covers 85,000 square miles, and is home to some of the most spectacular and unique natural formations in the country. Some of these unique sites have been designated national parks -- Famous among them are Zion National Park with its natural monuments, the towers and spires of Bryce Canyon, and the spectacular red rock of the Canyon Lands. Natural bridges, gorgeous canyons, and mysterious moonscapes are all part of Utah's landscape.<br />And the mountains of Utah offer great skiing and a great place for the 2002 Winter Olympics. Visit the site of the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, Utah.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2545816067848538113-5500974523516090796?l=utahbeehive.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Ketut Widartanoreply@blogger.com0
