Wow, this was a tough one to answer.  \nAccording to this page, it says the trail is 1.05 miles:\nhttp://nn.byu.edu/story.cfm/55227\n\nThis was the best page that I found that describes how to get to the trailhead, but it doesn't have a distance:\nhttp://www.geocities.com/Yosemite/Rapids/6257/ymtn.html\n\nEnjoy!

A mountain is an elevation in the earth's surface. The elevation, or altitude, of a mountain is given as the height of the summit above sea level. Mountains are much bigger than hills. Most of the time they are made up elongated ranges. It is rare when a mountain stands alone.\n\nWhat is the difference between tallest and highest? Tallest: the top is the furthest away from the base. Highest: the top is the furthest away from sea level. There are three ways of measuring the height of a mountain. So which mountain is the tallest? One way to measure a mountain is by measuring from sea level. The second way is by measuring from base to peak. The third way is by measuring the distance from the center of the earth to the peak of the mountain.\n\nMt. Everest, on the Nepal-Tibet border in the Himalayas, is the highest mountain on earth. It is about 8,850 meters above sea level. height was confirmed in December 1983 during a surveillance mission by the space shuttle Columbia. Mauna Kea, or "White Mountain"a volcano of the "Big Island" of Hawaii, is the tallest mountain on earth. It measure about 10,200 meters from base to summit. Chimborazo is a volcano in the Andes of Ecuador. It measures about 6,310 meters above sea level. When height is measured from the center of the earth, Chimborazo is tallest since it is located nearly on the equator, where the earth bulges the most.

The Rocky Mountains, often called the Rockies, are a broad mountain range in western North America. The Rocky Mountains stretch more than 3,000 miles (4,800 kilometers) from British Columbia, in Canada, to New Mexico, in the United States.\n\nDeath Valley is a valley in the U.S. state of California, and is the location of the lowest elevation in North America. Located southeast of the Sierra Nevada range in the Great Basin and the Mojave Desert.\n\nThe gulf's eastern, north, and northwestern shores lie within the United States of America ; its southwestern and southern shores lie within Mexico; on the southeast it is bordered by Cuba. It connects with the Atlantic Ocean via the Florida Straits between the U.S. and Cuba, and with the Caribbean Sea via the Yucatan Channel between Mexico and Cuba.\n\nThe Laurentian mountains (French: Laurentides) are a mountain range in southern Quebec, Canada, north of the St. Lawrence River and Ottawa River, rising to a highest point of 960.8 metres (3,150 feet) at Mont Tremblant.

The western quarter of Utah is very desolate with few towns or paved roads - beyond I-15 at the foot of the central mountains the land becomes mostly flat interrupted only by occasional ranges of hills, part of the Great Basin Desert that stretches across Nevada. At the edge of this forgotten region lies the largest expanse of sand dunes in the state, contained within the Little Sahara Recreation Area (120 square miles), a BLM-managed location popular for camping, hiking, exploring and photography but which is mainly known as a centre for off road vehicle use. \n\n\n\nLocation: The nearest main road is US 6 from Provo to US 93 in Nevada - one of only four paved routes that cross the state border. This skirts the edge of the Sevier Desert, part of a huge empty area of mud flats and salt plains which also includes the Great Salt Lake Desert; all this area was once under the waters of ancient Lake Bonneville. The entrance road to the Recreation Area leaves US 6 near Jericho, a lonely stop on the Union Pacific railway between Salt Lake City and Las Vegas. After a few miles it passes a visitor centre (usually closed) and the entrance station (the entry fee is a rather steep $6) and leads into the centre of the dunes; the vegetation becomes more and more sparse and the road finally ends, White Sands National Monument style, in a large flat area of compressed sand with dunes all around. \n\nSand Mountain: Little Sahara seems quite popular; many visitors bring large RVs with dune buggies or other off road vehicles in tow and stay for some time. There are four official campsites and dispersed camping is allowed anywhere away from the road. The most impressive location is Sand Mountain - an elongated ridge, highest point of which is almost 700 feet above the dunes with steep, smooth slopes of sand devoid of any plants; these represent the biggest challenge for the ORV crowd. The mountain can also be climbed on foot. This is difficult but rather fun, especially when sliding back down - the ascent takes half an hour but only a few minutes are needed to return. Some parts of the hillside have outcrops of weathered, bluish grey sandstone which help when scrambling up, and the ridge on top is formed by the same rock. From here there are great views over vast areas of undulating sand, stretching away to the southwest, a view only slightly spoiled by a power station a few miles away. The top is usually very windy with much airborne sand blown by the prevailing southerly winds - not a good place for expensive camera equipment. \n\nOther Areas: Most of the northwest corner of Little Sahara is off limits to all vehicles to provide a sheltered habitat for desert plants and wildlife, which includes mule deer, pronghorn antelope, snakes and birds of prey. This is designated the Rockwell Natural Area, and is a good place for backpacking trips. The highest peak in the main recreation area is 5,828 foot Black Mountain, another popular ORV location with many trails criss-crossing the grassy slopes\nhttp://www.americansouthwest.net/utah/little_sahara/recreation_area.html

500 miles\n\nthink of it as a triangle with the hypp. being the 1000miles and the distance east being the opp. side.\n\nuse sin.\n\nsin(degrees)=opp./hypp.\nsin(30)=opp./1000\n(1000)(sin(30))=opp.\n500=opp.\n\n500 miles east

I suppose you mean Mauna Kea. It is the tallest mountain in Hawaii culminating at 13,796 feet (4,205 m). It is also technically the tallest mountain in the world from base as there it would culminate at 33,474 feet (10,203 m). However we don't measure from base, we measure from sea level so it cannot take place as tallest mountain on earth.\n\nHope this helps,

Cortez is about 6,200 ft and Durango is about 6,500 ft. if I remember correctly.  I grew up in Cortez and the area is a great place to  visit.

I love Utah.  You can hike slot canyons, see Indian Ruins/writtings, while just a few hours away be hiking rugged snow-capped mountains.  You can also find popular hiking trails, and if you want find many that you will not see anyone on.

If you go to any of the BYU's there are. Brigham Young University Provo, Idaho and Hawaii all have strict dress codes  (Idaho the most so with rules such as no sandals and no capris) and you can get kicked out of their schools for not following their dress codes. I know that guys can get kicked out of having too long of hair or facial hair unless they get special permission. These dress codes even carry over to their place of residence. To go to BYU you have to live in BYU approved housing which makes you follow the same set of rules. Even if you don't go to BYU but you live in BYU approved housing you have to follow all the rules including dress code.

I'm sorry, not enough information. You could go to the Yahoo search engine under images and enter hill or mountain image. You might find something or go back to the conference organizers for the name.

BYU (Brigham Young University), BYU Idaho, BYU Hawaii.  I'm sure there are other colleges with standards, but they won't be as populated with LDS.
