Monte Cristo Range is a mountain range in Cache, Rich, and Weber counties in Utah, United States,[2] that is a subrange of the Wasatch Range and is a 30 miles (48 km) long[3] mountain range in the extreme northeast of the state. 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. The main, north-northeasterly ridgeline, forms the county boundaries between Cache County (west) and Rich County (east).
