We stayed in Springville, Utah for 6 days. It was pretty hot during the day, but cooled off at night. We drove in to Salt Lake City and spent a morning visiting the Temple Square. I had been there many years ago, but it was still impressive. Emily had never seen it. A couple of LDS volunteers took us on a tour. We saw the Chapel, the Tabernacle, the Visitors Center, Brigham Young's home and The Temple. Only LDS members are allowed inside the Temple so we only saw it from the outside.
We drove out to the Great Salt Lake and then went to see the Golden Spike site above Salt Lake City. It was about 100 miles to the site and when we were about 20 miles away we saw a sign that said it closed at 5:30. Since it was then almost 6:00 we turned around and didn't get to see it. Since it was such along drive, we didn't get to go back. A trip to Cabellos took its place. At Cabellos I bought a digital altimeter and compass that has been useful.
