Salt Lake City Maps and Orientation
(Salt Lake City, Utah - UT, USA)
The capital of Utah, Salt Lake City lies on the northern side of the state, being near the Red Butte Canyon Research Natural Area and also within close proximity to the border with
Wyoming.
When it comes to getting around Salt Lake City, visitors will soon realize that this is a very organized and modern city, with a gridwork of principal streets heading north to south, as well as east to west. Streets are numbered, radiating outwards from a central point, with each city block generally counting as '100' in the numbering system, e.g. S 900 East.
Asking locals for directions in Salt Lake City can sometimes prove confusing, since they may use their own versions of the street names. Therefore, maps can be invaluable if you are looking to find your way around independently and with ease.
