The Traverse Mountains, or sometimes Traverse Range,[1] are an anomalous, geologically complex, east-trending range that separates Salt Lake Valley and Utah Valley in Salt Lake and Utah counties in the U.S. State of Utah.

Point of the Mountain is colloquially used to refer to the part of this range that separates the Salt Lake City and Provo metropolitan areas, as well as the mountain pass at 40°27′13″N 111°54′38″W / 40.45361°N 111.91056°W / 40.45361; -111.91056,[2] used by the highways and rail arteries that connect the two areas.
