And the Itty Bitty winners are . . .

As Daniel Stober says, "I hope Doug and Iris had a long, fruitful life together, otherwise they will have tortured us all for nothing."

Stober was referring to the "Doug + Iris" written in the sidewalk on 300 East, one of 21 sometimes elusive clues in our 13th annual Itty Bitty Salt Lake City contest. This year's contest drew more than 100 teams, who pounded downtown pavements for days trying to identify tiny fragments of buildings, signs and other landmarks.

Many entrants said they enjoyed the contest, despite having to retrace their steps looking for clues.

The Joyce Mustoe family had fun even though their van broke down and they had to have it towed back to Riverton.

Seth and Tricia Norwood of Salt Lake City had fun even after they discovered how serious the other contestants were. "I'm not sure," says Tricia, "but I think they had invested in infrared goggles, walkie-talkies and heavy-duty mountain bikes to complete the course.

"All I could say was, 'Bring it on! I plan on getting tough next year.' "

The most difficult clue this year proved to be No. 1: the words "summer past." As many entrants eventually discovered, it's part of a poem at the base of a Dennis Smith statue at 61 S. Main.

Grand prize winner is Ellen Clift of Salt Lake City, a contest veteran, who will receive a $2,000 CD from Zions Bank.

Second prize goes to Mark Harbertson of South Jordan, who wins a night's stay for two at the Peery Hotel and a $50 gift certificate for Christopher's Seafood and Steakhouse.

Third prize, four Utah Symphony tickets and two $30 gift certificates to any Gastronomy restaurant, goes to Mary Jane Vuyk of South Jordan, another Itty Bitty vet.

Fourth-prize winners are Adria and Daniel Williams of West Jordan, who will receive two tickets to a Jazz suite and a $50 FANZZ gift certificate.

Fifth prize, a gift pack for four to the Living Planet Aquarium and $20 in Muscle Beach Lemonade certificates, goes to John and Janene Atwood of Sandy.
