It is a college town. Utah State University.
I'm dealing with the opposite issue right now. I'm a transplant living in South Texas. Bought a decent amount of land, surrounded by empty pastures. Got to shoot whenever I wanted, and everything was great. Now a bunch of the locals are buying up the pastures since they're old enough to move out of their family homes, and they're building houses in those pastures. They all complain about my shooting, and I just find it all so ironic. I can't wait to start calling them a bunch of California liberals so I can watch their heads explode at the conundrum.
Maybe we should pool our money and develop a shooting community with an HOA requiring every resident get in range time daily.
No club house, just a range.
"Uhhh, it looks like your range card hasn't been punched in a few weeks. We wouldn't want you to fall into the restricted list! This is just a friendly reminder to get your range time in, and make sure you get your card marked so you get credit for the time!"
I am going to be flying into salt lake this coming weekend and staying for 2 1/2 days.
Any suggestions for hikes, outdoor activities, must sees and eats ?
I am visiting solo to see if salt lake will be a good fit for me and my family.

The company I work for does sale lazy boy. Not lazy boy, although it is one of the biggest.
Pretty sure they have a facility up in box elder county that's why I was asking. Well lots to do here and you will find a nice house for North of 800k.
I have a son in Salt Lake. There are several long distance shooting ranges nearby. He skis and snowboards in the winter and races on a nearby racetrack in the summer, or hikes in the mountains. He told me about a place with a spring and a pool he hiked to, and sat in the pool by himself. He was all relaxed and looked up and saw a mountain lion staring back down at him.

2 hours from downtown for 1000 yards.
Sighting in almost downtown with 100-300 yards.
Public land abounds where one can shoot for free.

A 600 yard range in the canyon - lease expired in 2019 - I just found that out using Google and stumbling across a reddit post about shooting around Salt Lake. Sad to see one go.
Soldiers Pass, 750 yards

I finally made the visit to slc area this past week. Of the places I visited, kaysville is now my top choice of places to live in the slc area. Not far from ogden or slc.

What part? I'm in kaysville edge of Farmington.
I did a couple of hikes from the 27th and 29th trail heads in Ogden. The Bonneville shoreline trail to the Hidden valley trail and Malans peak trail were good workouts.

Cabellas is good but the Scheels 33 miles south in Sandy has better selection for this hobby. My tastes are more expensive than cabela's mostly.
I spent the 1st five years of my life in Torrington, and still have family there. So technically I would just be coming home. But seriously doubt I'd give up Alabama, been here the last 40 years...
I remember a time working in Anchorage, taking a break inside a walk-in freezer to warm up!
Hmmm my 2mile spot is about an hour and some change away from slc.
Kaysville is decent area
If you are going to need to commute, pay attention to real world commute times in choosing a location. Some of them can be downright awful in SLC.
