The Wasatch Mountains are a mountain range located in northern Utah, stretching approximately 160 miles from the Utah-Idaho border to the Utah-Nevada border. They are known for their stunning scenery, including rugged peaks, deep canyons, and diverse ecosystems. The range is part of the larger Rocky Mountains and features several prominent peaks, such as Mount Timpanogos and Ben Lomond. The Wasatch Mountains are popular for outdoor activities, including hiking, skiing, and mountain biking. The area is home to several national and state parks, such as Wasatch-Cache National Forest, which offers recreational opportunities and protects the region's natural beauty. The mountains also play a crucial role in Utah's water supply, capturing snowfall that feeds rivers and reservoirs.
