The La Sal Mountains make for a handy reference point in and around Moab, Utah. The peaks were covered with snow in April and visible from almost anyplace near Moab.

The La Sal Mountains are located about 20 miles southeast of Moab in the Manti-La Sal National Forest near Utah’s border with Colorado.

The mountain peaks are over 12,000 feet – the second highest mountain range in Utah.
