...live in Utah is to live in a state of paradox," says Terry Tempest Williams, one of the state's best-known writers. Utah is hardly Brigham Young's Promised Land of milk and honey. It is mostly infertile desert, rock and a lake that is too salty to support even fish. Out of this apocalyptic landscape of blood-red rock and sulphur-colored plains, the pioneers hacked a difficult livelihood, struggling with biblical droughts, a plague of grasshoppers and overpowering summer heat. In other Western states such hardships bred a cantankerous individualism. In Utah the LDS church fostered...
