Meteorites can be found anywhere! The easiest places would be dry lake beds as there is no interference from
bushes, uneven terrain etc. Almost all meteorites have iron and/or nickel and will respond to a metal detector. Some
are pretty small, so go slow with your detector.
I have never been to Utah, so I can't give you any specific spots.
Good luck,
Rich
