Murray, UT 84141 Frost Dates
Murray, UT: when does the frost end?
Typically, the last spring freeze lands around 04/08, roughly 223 days out. Fall's first freeze usually shows up around 10/31, roughly 204 days after the last spring frost.

Stretching the season past the first frost
With roughly 9 weeks until Murray's first fall frost, a row cover or cold frame is what stretches the last few weeks of harvest here.
How much risk comes with planting early here
04/08 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Getting tender plants in by 03/17 carries real risk, frost has hit that late in about 9 of 10 years here. Wait until 04/30 and only about 1 year in 10 sees frost after that.
