Swasey Mountain

Swasey Mountain is a ridge-backed summit in the Great Basin that stretches roughly 22 kilometers in an L-shaped form with its highest point reaching 2948 meters. The range shows exposed rock faces and includes multiple passes and canyons throughout its structure.

The summit took its name from Charles Swasey, an early settler and rancher who operated in the region. The location later became an important crossing point for travelers moving through the desert terrain.

The mountain sits within the House Range where different passages cut through its length, and these corridors have long served as natural pathways for people moving across the desert landscape.

The ridge can be reached by several routes including Antelope Springs Road and passages through local canyons. Visitors should prepare for rugged conditions and respect the remote desert setting.

The mountain ranks among Utah's most prominent peaks and stands as the highest point in Millard County, making it a significant geographical feature. Its position makes it visible from the surrounding area and emphasizes its importance to the local landscape.
