and nice to see you active here on SP! The page will benefit from more images, a small section on nature and history of the area, and more children objects (I hope to include Stansbury Island and Promonotory Range later in spring). Will up my vote as the page progresses.
This page is a great idea. I particularly like the fact that you have the Wellsville peaks in it as well as Messix Pk and Stansbury Island.
Utah is full of great places and these are some that most people have never heard of. BTW, the following link will give you a neat map of the prominence peaks of Utah and you'll notice that the northwest corner of Utah has all of the ones you have noted.

Was in the Logan area and got a pic of Box Elder and Wellsville since there didn't appear to be any yet on summitpost. I'd love to get up and climb these from Coldwater trail this year, but I'm hearing the road isn't passenger car friendly!
Thanks for the photo. Yes, the Coldwater Trail is not passenger car friendly. It is easy to get stuck there. I would only take a high clearance vehicle up that road. The Rattlesnake Trail and Deep Canyon trailheads can be reached by any vehicle.
The Rattlesnake Trail is the shortest route to the summit of Box Elder Peak. Wellsville Cone would add an extra 2 miles roundtrip but there is a trail. The snow has already melted from the Wellsville Mountains and they are waiting to be climbed now.
And a really nice job! All of your pages are excellent but the range pages are exceptional, lots of good information here and you covered everything!... Will definately come in handy :-) Thanks very much!
I have a couple of shots of the Lakeside Mountains, I'll go through them soon.
Thanks Greg! I decided to adopt the page and redo it from scratch. It will be a growing page like the Bear River Range. There are still plenty of mountains to explore up north. Feel free to add any of your photos for this area.
Thanks for the nice compliment! This page should be more complete by next year. I will be adding more information to it when I climb mountains in this area.
Thanks! There is still a lot of information I plan to add to this page. Just need time to go to all of these mountain ranges especially the more obscure areas. I agree with you. My list of places to visit just keeps getting bigger!
Thanks for kind words! I tried to make the pages useful for locals and for people who are not familiar with the area. I also like your pages from the Eastern U.S.
Thanks Eric! I have been adding info to this page as I explore this area more. Some of the mountains are a long drive from the city and it has been fun to hike in those ranges.
I never get tired of your work and they deserve front page exposure. Few people provide the depth and information that you do on your area pages and this one is another gem. Thanks for all the time you spend.

Re: On a roll!Thanks Matt! I'm sure people are tired of seeing my pages on the front page. This one was fun and interesting to put together for a great area.
