The Salt Lake Graticule
Salt Lake City's graticule is at latitude 40, longitude -111. All things considered it's a pretty good graticule. It is almost exclusively land, including several national forests. Terrain is easily the largest obstacle, as the Wasatch Mountains cut right through the center of the graticule, but mountains are traversable.
The graticule contains (from north to south) Kaysville, Salt Lake City, West Jordan, Sandy, Provo and Orem.
