Utah Real Estate has one of the least populous states and one of the most geologically diverse, Utah is one of the most astoundingly beautiful areas in the southwest. Utah consists of three geologic regions: Great Basin, Rocky Mountains and Colorado Plateau. The Great Basin is a large arid region of the U.S., and in Utah, transpires in the Great Salt Lake and its miles of deserts. The Rocky Mountains in Utah contain world-class ski resorts, and contributed to the appeal of Utah as host of the 2002 Winter Olympics. The Colorado Plateau is centered around the Four Corners region in the southwestern corner of the state and consists of many picturesque mesas and abundant mineral deposits. Although Europeans may have ventured into the area as early as 1540, a group led by two Catholic priests left from Santa Fe in 1776 hoping to find a route to the Pacific coast certainly traveled as far north as Utah Lake. In 1847, when the region was still a Mexican territory, Mormons settled in the area to escape disputes with the U.S. government stemming from the Mormon practice of polygamy.
