EKO→SLCElko to Salt Lake CityElko Regional AirporttoSalt Lake City International

Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Elko to Salt Lake City. While the takeoff offers good mountain views on the right, the landing approach provides superior scenery with the dramatic Wasatch Range escarpment and Great Salt Lake visible on the left. The landing views are more visually striking and geographically significant for this route.

During takeoff from Elko Regional Airport (EKO), sit on the Right side for the best views. Climbing eastbound from Elko, the right side offers immediate views of the Ruby Mountains and the high desert terrain stretching toward the Pequop Mountains. The left side faces back toward lower terrain and the Humboldt River valley with less dramatic relief. Notable sights include: Ruby Mountains (southeast), Pequop Mountains (east-northeast), Humboldt River valley floor (north), high desert sagebrush plains.

When landing at Salt Lake City International (SLC), sit on the Left side for the best views. Descending westbound into Salt Lake City, the left side provides views of the Wasatch Range's dramatic eastern escarpment and the Great Salt Lake as you approach from the east. The right side faces the less scenic inland desert and lower terrain. Notable sights include: Wasatch Range (north and west), Great Salt Lake (northwest), Salt Lake Valley floor, Oquirrh Mountains (southwest).
