Geography

Utah is located in the Western region of the United States. It is bordered by Nevada to the west, Arizona to the south, Colorado to the east, Idaho to the northwest, Wyoming to the northeast, and touches New Mexico to the southeast at the Four Corners. Referred to as "Four Corners," this is the only place in the United States where four states meet. Utah cover an area of 84,899 square miles (219,890 km2), the state's physical features range from arid deserts to pine forests. Only three U.S. states (Utah, Colorado, and Wyoming) have exclusively latitude and longitude lines as boundaries.

Geographically, the state can be divided into three regions: the Rocky Mountains, the Basin and Range Province, and the Colorado Plateau.

The Rocky Mountains are an imposing presence in many of the western states. There are two ranges of Rocky Mountains that run in the state of Utah. These are the Uinta Range and the Wasatch Range. Wasatch Range runs down to the northern center of the state whereas the Uinta Range lies in the northeastern region. It is home to the highest point in the state, Kings Peak. It has many ski resorts and attracts many visitors every year.

The Basin and Range Province lies in western Utah. Its topography is characterized by deserts, mountains and basins and sand dunes. The lowest and the warmest part of the state, “Utah’s Dixie” is located in the southwestern corner of this region.

The Colorado Plateau is located in the southern and eastern region of the state. The topography of this region is characterized by deep canyons and valleys. Plateaus such as Fish Lake are as high as 11,000 feet (3,352 m) above the sea level. The Colorado River passes through Utah.

The state has five national parks: Arches, Bryce Canyon, Canyonlands, Capitol Reef, and Zion National Park. Great Salt Lake, Utah Lake, Sevier Lake, and Rush Lake are major water bodies in the state. Significant rivers in Utah include the Green River, San Juan River, Logan River, and White River. With an elevation of 13,534 feet (4,125 m), Kings Peak is the highest point in Utah.

The majority of the state's population lives around the Great Salt Lake, with the principal city being Salt Lake City. Another population hub is St. George to the southwest of the state. Most of the state is remote with very little population.

Climate

The climate of Utah features a dry, semi-arid to desert climate, although its many mountains feature a large variety of climates, with the highest points in the Uinta Mountains being above the timberline. The dry weather is a result of the state's location in the rain shadow of the Sierra Nevada in California. The eastern half of the state lies in the rain shadow of the Wasatch Mountains. The primary source of precipitation for the state is the Pacific Ocean, with the state usually lying in the path of large Pacific storms from October to May. In summer, the state, especially southern and eastern Utah, lies in the path of monsoon moisture from the Gulf of California.

There are 10 cities in the Utah map expansion.
