Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

While both sides are spectacular, the Right Side wins for the dramatic, close-up perspective of the Wasatch Mountains during the northern approach into Ogden.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
🌲

Mogollon Rim

The dramatic escarpment where the Sonoran Desert meets the high-altitude pine forests of Northern Arizona.

🏔️

Wasatch Range

A continuous wall of towering, rugged peaks following the flight path closely into Ogden.

🐚

San Rafael Swell

A massive geological dome featuring impressive canyons and jagged rock 'reefs'.

🏙️

Salt Lake Valley

An aerial view of the urban sprawl of the Wasatch Front nestled directly against the mountain base.

Book a morning flight to avoid harsh shadows on the Wasatch mountains. The descent into Ogden is spectacular on this side as the plane flies parallel to the peaks; look for the ski resorts near Park City and the prominent Ben Lomond peak as you approach the airport.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏜️

Grand Canyon

Expansive views of the Colorado River's path and the iconic canyon walls to the west.

💧

Lake Powell

The stunning blue waters of the reservoir contrasted against the stark red sandstone of Glen Canyon.

🧱

Bryce Canyon Region

Distant views of the high plateaus and pink-tinted rock formations of Southern Utah.

🌊

Great Salt Lake

The shimmering, multi-colored expanse visible during the final descent and turn into Ogden.

For the best experience, choose an afternoon flight to see the Grand Canyon illuminated by the western sun. Keep your camera ready as you pass over the Arizona-Utah border for vibrant shots of Lake Powell and the Great Salt Lake's unique evaporation ponds.
