I love it! There really is something about the further away you get from downtown SLC... This just puts it in a representational model. I think we could all live with this.

Really interesting map. Makes sense in terms of urban, suburban/exurban, and rural groups of interest. Rural area is HUGE and unwieldy though.

This map fails to keep Salt Lake County, the most populous county in our state with 34% of the entire state population as a single community of interest. This map goes against allowing a single group to choose its own representative. The power of the citizenry is diluted with any division of this county.

Not a perfect map due to the transportation issues, but I do find it interesting and better than others, because it puts the core slc city and closest urban sprawl in one district, then spreads out from there which is kind of putting like communities together: city, urban sprawl, rural.

The Nebraska method works in Nebraska because of how all the population there is concentrated along the state border and the entire state has workable transportation links. Utah has large stretches of land that are unpopulated and difficult to travel through, so trying to do the same thing in Utah just puts large populations that have nothing to do with each other together.
