The city occupies the north end of the Salt Lake Valley at an elevation of 4,327feet(1,320m). The valley is surrounded by mountains that rise up to 6,500 feet(1,980m) above the valley floor. Named after the nearby Great Salt Lake—in fact, the original name was “Great Salt Lake City”—the city is separated from the lake’s shore by marshes and mud flats. Residents are known as “Salt Lakers”. Founded in 1847 by a group of Latter-day Saints(Mormons) led by Brigham Young, Salt Lake City is among the region’s oldest cities and is the location of the headquarters of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Mining and railroads initially brought economic growth, and the city became known as the “Crossroads of the West”. The city has developed a strong tourism industry and was host to the 2002 Winter Olympics.
