Letter: 'The Wasatch mountains and canyons are the core of the Wasatch Front natural beauty. And now, these leaders have chosen to enable more manmade scars by pushing [the gondola] plan forward.'

People in the Salt Lake Valley like to talk about how beautiful it is here, but the beauty in your valley is becoming increasingly scarce. When we visit from the east, we see more mountains being torn down to mine cement products, with even more mountains recently scheduled for destruction.

What we no longer see is the Great Salt Lake, a once proud gem of the valley.
