With a good snowfall, Juab__is snowmobiling.
In winter, the Mount Nebo National Scenic Byway (aka Nebo Loop) turns into one of Utah’s best snowmobile trails. Portions are groomed from December through March, with elevations reaching 9,200 breathtaking feet. Trails provide access to excellent winter scenery and enjoyable play areas, including the Mt. Nebo high-tops/wilderness area and the Wasatch Range.
Here’s a detailed map showing the route.
Access to the complex is provided through the Salt Creek Canyon trailheads. Services along this trail are limited, and snowmobilers should plan to take extra food and fuel.
There are many ungroomed and unsigned side trails in the area. Riding in the mountains of Utah presents some unique, life-threatening winter hazards. Due to the steepness of the terrain, there is a risk of avalanches in these areas, and snowmobilers should take appropriate precautions.
Before heading out, please check on grooming and avalanche conditions at Utah Snowmobile Association and Utah Avalanche Center.
