Sanpete County, Administrative county in central Utah, United States
Sanpete County extends across 1,603 square miles of land between mountainous terrains and valleys, with South Tent Mountain reaching 11,285 feet in elevation point.
The county originated in 1852 after Mormon pioneers established settlements following a request from two Ute chiefs to Brigham Young in 1849.
The Manti Temple stands as a central religious structure in the county seat, representing the Mormon heritage that shapes local traditions and community gatherings.
The county maintains several highways including US-89 and UT-28, connecting residents to essential services across cities like Manti, Ephraim, and neighboring regions.
Turkey ranching forms a substantial part of the local economy, with Moroni Feed Company leading the agricultural production in this sector.
