Draper

Draper sits at the Point of the Mountain, the geographic notch dividing the Salt Lake and Utah valleys — the city actually spans both Salt Lake and Utah counties. Settlement began in 1849 when Ebenezer Brown grazed cattle at South Willow Creek; the town was named Draperville for William Draper Jr., an early LDS bishop who settled there in 1850, and the city formally incorporated in 1978. Today Draper is part of the Silicon Slopes tech corridor, home to more than 1,000 businesses including Pluralsight, Dealertrack, 1-800 Contacts, and Tesla. The Point, a roughly 600-acre redevelopment of the former Utah State Prison site, is planned to bring housing, offices, and an innovation hub to the city's north end, while Traverse Mountain continues to grow as a retail and office center. Draper also maintains more than 150 miles of trails across 5,000 acres of open space, including the Corner Canyon trail system on the city's east bench — the only trail network in Utah with views of both the Salt Lake and Utah valleys. Because Draper spans two counties and two school districts, there's no single "Draper High School" — Corner Canyon High (Chargers) sits inside city limits under Canyons School District, while Alta High also serves part of the city. Each July, Draper Days brings a rodeo, parade, concerts, and fireworks to town as the city's largest annual celebration.

Herriman

Herriman sits in the southwest corner of Salt Lake County, bordered by the Oquirrh Mountains, with views of the Kennecott copper mine at sunset. The city maintains more than 60 miles of trails — over 37 miles of primitive foothill trails and 23 miles of paved paths — plus Blackridge Reservoir for wading and kayaking, and city-county partnership access to the Butterfield Canyon Trailhead on its western edge. Between 2010 and 2019, Herriman was the fastest-growing city over 10,000 residents in the entire United States, and it has kept growing since — the Census Bureau's current estimate puts the population above 63,000, up nearly 15% since 2020. Jordan School District operates two comprehensive high schools inside Herriman — Herriman High (Mustangs) and Mountain Ridge High (Sentinels) — with district boundary lines still actively shifting between them. The city has embraced a "Herriman Yeti" as its unofficial mascot, showing up in events like the Yeti Run, Yeti's Foam Party, and Yeti Hunt. Herriman's civic calendar is anchored by Fort Herriman Towne Days, the city's largest annual event, held each summer at W&M Butterfield Park with a parade, car show, carnival, and fireworks. The city also hosts the Fort Herriman PRCA Rodeo each summer, Hungry Herriman food-truck gatherings at Crane Plaza, and Night of Lights each December, a laser light show projected onto City Hall.
