Wasatch Range
The Wasatch Range is a mountain range in northern Utah, extending approximately 160 miles from the Utah-Idaho border to Provo. It serves as a natural divide between the Great Basin to the west and the Rocky Mountains to the east. Known for its stunning scenery, the range features rugged peaks, deep canyons, and diverse ecosystems. Popular for outdoor activities, it offers hiking, skiing, and wildlife viewing. The Wasatch Range plays a vital role in Utah's water supply, influencing local climate and providing snowmelt that feeds rivers and reservoirs, supporting both ecosystems and human needs.
