The Deep Creek Range, often referred to as the Deep Creek Mountains (Goshute: Pi'a-roi-ya-bi),[1] are a mountain range in the Great Basin located in extreme western Tooele and Juab counties in Utah, United States.
[2] The range trends north–south (with a curl to the west at the southern end, 16% of range in White Pine County, Nevada[3]), and is composed of granite in its central highest portion.
The range is the source of several perennial streams and supports a diverse coniferous forest, with an "island" of alpine tundra on the highest summits.
The range has a vertical relief of 7,800 feet (2,400 m) above the salt flats of the Great Salt Lake Desert lying to the northeast and rises about 6,000 feet (1,800 m) above the semiarid plains to the west.
