SLC is a great place to be, hike, trail run, and cycle tis'' true -if you''re in town again, give a shout. Heck, there''s still skiing at Alta. Thanes is a nice option when the sun is hot, but not so great for views (and unrelentingly steep at the top). Glad you discovered the side trails. FYI, a traditional airport layover stop is the Red Iguana, one of SLC''s best mexican places. Don''t miss the killer moles! -Russ Hi Alex-

You can also head up the Cottonwood canyons - cycling, hiking... etc. I debated relocating or timesharing there as part of a project for work - I had the same thoughts as you - relatively flat - a few cool neighborhoods - and playtime within a short drive or ride.
