caption_attribution_description: English: The Newfoundland Mountains in Utah is a mountain range located in Box Elder County. The highest point on this range is known as Desert Peak [1] (not to be confused with the Deseret Peak or the Desert Peak Formation, Nevada). This aerial photo was taken from a commercial flight from Salt Lake City to San Francisco.
context_page_description: The Newfoundland Mountains are a 20-mile long mountain range located in southern Box Elder County, Utah, United States. The range is the only 'island' mountain range encircled by the Great Salt Lake Desert salt flat. Other ranges protrude into the desert salt flat, the Silver Island and Dugway Ranges being the premiere examples. Other individual mountains also arise as 'island' peaks, or mountains in the salt flat desert itself, most notably Granite Mountain in the south desert, and Wildcat Mountain to its north. Granite Mountain lies at the north of the Dugway Range.
