Hi, e9mediallc-ga:
I know my own local .Net user group has been sending out emails with
work opportunities. It's not a very formal arrangement, but it got me
to thinking about what might be available in Utah.
So backtracking from my own user group's Web site, I went here:
[MSDN Online - User Groups]
http://msdn.microsoft.com/usergroups/find.asp
This lead me to this user group in Salt Lake City, Utah:
[Utah .Net User Group]
http://www.utahdnug.org/
which has a job board, including some C# related opportunities:
[Utah .Net User Group - Job Board]
http://www.utahdnug.org/Job+Board/default.aspx
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Another of my favorite sites for things .Net:
[GotDotNet - Resource Center]
http://www.gotdotnet.com/community/resources/home.aspx
includes a jobs section, also message boards, e.g. C# specific. It's
not geographically restrictive, but you could certainly identify the
travel and availability necessary, and let the "community members"
respond. [A Microsoft "passport" is required to register there, eg. a
Hotmail account.]
It wasn't obvious to me how to submit a job for posting here, so I
contacted them (by email) to find out. An MSDN Community Site Manager
promptly responded as follows:
"Jobs are posted just as any other resource - their main attribute is
that they are a job listing rather than an article, vendor, component,
etc....
"The approval process for all resource center postings goes through
the same tool. So you submit, we process, it goes up if acceptable."
[GotDotNet Resource Submission]
http://www.gotdotnet.com/Community/Resources/Submit.aspx
In your case I'd say the resource type would be "Jobs", the technology
ASP.NET, and the skill C#. Applying these settings as a "filter" to
the resource listings found 35 matches, though not all terribly
recent. The listing would include a link to your own site for further
details about the opportunity and application.

One advantage you may have is your willingness to allow developers to
telecommute. Despite all the hype and the cost of providing on-site
facilities for development staff, telecommuting has yet to take up
much room on most job boards.
As a consequence you may be seeing some "free" resumes posted by
individuals on the Web, or one like this:
[I want work with .NET, using VB, C#, and/or ASP.NET]
http://www.free-for-recruiters.com/Resumes/UT/135584-Resume.html
"Applicant is exclusively interested in work-at-home opportunities."
The above is a site which, according to their FAQ, gets resumes
released by "paid" recruitment sites in return for advertising space
on their site. The above developer is interested exclusively in
telecommuting opportunities, so perhaps that resume was seen as a good
fit for the free site.

Other resources I'd look into are resume databanks created by state or
local governments for job seekers, as well as the placement offices
for local colleges and universities. For example:
[Utah Department of Workforce Services]
http://jobs.utah.gov/
"We recommend that in addition to using Utah's Job Bank, you also
contact the office nearest you or call (888) 920-WORK (9675) to ensure
that we provide you the best serves available, including a
comprehensive recruitment effort."
Employers need to register in order to post jobs and review the resume database:
[Utah DWS - Employer Login]
https://jobs.utah.gov/selfService/employer/Login.asp?ccv=1
Here's a site that provides additional links:
[Working in Utah]
http://www.utah.gov/working/employment.html

Good luck with your search, and I'll be happy to Clarify for you the
procedures of using these sites as needed.
