Wasatch Mountains

Photo by Bob Fagley

Heading east out of Salt Lake City's Great Basin, the Uinta National Forest signals an abrupt elevation change. Just 25 miles from the city lies unparallel mountain views, snow skiing runs, summer vacation resorts, the Albion Basin (a shutterbug's paradise), Little Cottonwood Canyon, rock climbing adventures and a place for the radical sport of ice climbing.
This enchanting winter scene of the Wasatch Mountains will whet the appetite of the adventurer found in all of us.
