I have been to this city and I know where it is, the two freeways are 2 major interstate freeways. Let others try to determine the location.

Is this in Salt Lake City where I-80, I-15 and highway 201 converge? My connection is choking as I am trying to get a photo map of the site that I think I found

Thanks!

It looked western U.S. to me, but I knew it wasn't Portland or Seattle or San Francisco, so I checked other major freeway interchange cities, starting with L.A., where I decided that there were too many freeways and that I would come back to that, so I checked Denver, CO, And didn't see anything that looked right, and then I remembered that the 84, 80, and a couple others all come together at various points in Salt Lake City and it jumped out at me. This was the first one that really jumped out at me.

These have been fun. Thanks, E-8!
