If anyone had a home mountain range for me it would be the Wasatch Mountains. I have been hiking fishing and skiing the Wasatch since a very early age. Each year my love for the Wasatch grows and with this gallery I will share the colors of a Wasatch Fall.
The Wasatch Mountains extend about a 160 miles from the Utah Idaho border south to central Utah and are considered the western boundary of the Rocky Mountains. The highest peak is Mount Nebo at 11,928 feet with the mountains rising from the Great Salt Lake Valley floor, 4,330 feet, to well over 11,750 feet producing steep inclines and many small canyons extending to the valley floor. Each is well worth prospecting by day hikes along an extensive network of improved trails.
The Wasatch Mountains have it all both summer and winter.
