Английская Википедия:Beaver Dam Mountains
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:For Шаблон:Infobox mountain The Beaver Dam Mountains are a Шаблон:Convert long mountain range located mostly in extreme southwest Washington County, Utah, west of St. George, with the south of the range extending into the Arizona Strip.
The range contains the Beaver Dam Mountains Wilderness which straddles the state's borders. The south of the range can be impressively seen from Interstate 15, as it traverses the corridor into Utah through the Virgin River Gorge, as the Virgin River exits the west of the Colorado Plateau.
Description
The range contains two sections. The northern massif is anchored by the highpoint (photo), of the West Mountain Peak (Washington County), Шаблон:Convert.[1] The eastern flank of the north massif contains Shivwits, Utah in the center of a section of the Paiute Indian Tribe of Utah, the Shivwits Band of Utah. Utah highway 91 traverses the northwest–southeast sections through Utah Hill Summit.[2]
The center of the range is adjacent to the Highway 91 mountain pass, and Tahoari (peak), Шаблон:Convert.[1][3]
The mountains are the only place in Utah where Dudleya arizonica, a rare plant of the family Crassulaceae, can be found.[4]
Access
The center of the range at about Шаблон:Convert,[1] (Utah Hill Summit), can be easily accessed from the west-southwest by Highway 91, from Littlefield, Arizona. The east and southeast of the range can be accessed by routes from St. George and Interstate 15.
