Monte Cristo Range (Utah)

It parallels the Bear River Mountains to the west, but is only about half its length.

The range trends north-northeast and also parallels a north-flowing stretch of the Bear River, with Woodruff, Randolph, and Sage Creek Junction on the river's west bank and bordering the eastern Monte Cristo Range foothills.

At the range's center-northwest foothills, in the north of Ant Valley, is the Hardware Ranch Wildlife Management Area.

Eccles Peak at 9,062 feet (2,762 m) is in the extreme southeast; southwest of Eccles Peak, is the range high point, at the southern terminus of the range, Mt McKinnon at 9,081 feet (2,768 m).

SR-39 turns northeasterly at the southeast foothills and heads to Woodruff, about 18 miles (29 km)[4] from the range.
