Mount Aire is an 8621feet mountain summit located in Salt Lake County, Utah, United States.
Mount Aire is located 11miles east-southeast of downtown Salt Lake City on land managed by Wasatch National Forest.[1] The peak is set in the Wasatch Range which is a subset of the Rocky Mountains. Precipitation runoff from the mountain's south slope drains to Mill Creek, whereas the other slopes drain to Parleys Creek. Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises over 2600abbr=offNaNabbr=off above Parleys Canyon in 1.5 mile (2.4 km). Reaching the top involves 3.8 miles (round-trip) of trail hiking with 1,987 feet of elevation gain, and the summit provides excellent views of the surrounding mountains.[6] This mountain's toponym has been officially adopted by the United States Board on Geographic Names.[4] "Mount Aire" is also the name of the area of summer homes in Mount Aire Canyon immediately northwest of the summit.[2]
