Narrative:
On approach into salt lake city at 5;300 ft I noticed a drone pass off the right side of the aircraft at our altitude within 100 ft of the right wing tip. Salt lake approach warned us about a green laser event and shortly thereafter I see the drone; reported the sighting and landed safely.
