Excerpt from Glaciation of the Uinta and Wasatch Mountains The Uinta Mountains are located in the northeastern portion of Utah and consist of a single range of peaks extending in a general east-west direction. If the crest line of this range were continued westward it would cross the Wasatch Range nearly at a right angle and reach the great Bonneville basin a few miles south of Salt Lake City. These two mountain ranges therefore stand nearly at right angles to each other, and yet are separated by a distance of not more than 10 miles. (see fig.

Other than the Brooks Range in Alaska, the Uintas are the most prominent east/west range in the United States. They also contain the highest mountains in Utah, many of which exceed 13,000 feet, including Kings Peak at 13,528 feet -- the highest point in Utah. There are well over 1,000 natural lakes and over 400 miles of streams in this 100-mile long range in northeastern Utah. While the intended scope of this book is fairly broad, the author presents the geologic story of the Uinta Mountains with a clarity and wit that gives this book a unique and popular appeal.
