Mount Tuscarora is a 10,646-foot-elevation (3,245-meter) summit in Salt Lake County, Utah, United States.
Precipitation runoff from the mountain's north slope drains into headwaters of Big Cottonwood Creek, whereas the south slope drains into headwaters of Little Cottonwood Creek.
Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises 1,100 feet (335 meters) above Lake Mary in one-half mile (0.8 km).
