It's unfortunate that the most gorgeous state in the union was settled by religious fuckwads.
I guess beauty truly is in the eye of the beholder. Utah has a certain stark appeal to it I can see, but the sheer lush greenery of my native Oregon always wins me over.
Utah has plenty of green-space you just need to climb a mountain to get to it. It's perfect. It's also not raining 75% of the time.
Mountains are fine, no complaint there... but my counterpoint would be that to reach a lush, green area, I can basically just step outside my front door.
You're not wrong about the rain, though.
I mean my beloved Colorado is far from ugly but Utah (or, well, Moab which is the only part I have seen in person so far) is fucking amazing to see. But I also think Arizona is gorgeous. Wyoming too. At some point it isn't a contest it's just, "these states are fucking amazing, holy shit."
Anyway it sucks Utah is overrun with zealots.
Everywhere I've lived, and I've lived in quite a few places, has paled in comparison to Anchorage, AK.
