Geography

UTC-7 corresponds in theory to a zone whose Longitude S lie between 97,5° E and 112,5° E and the hour initially used corresponded to the average solar hour of the 105 {{E}} meridian west.

In the United States and Canada, the time zone is called Mountain Standard Time (standard hour of Rock, summary in MST).

Summer-time

Almost the whole of the areas located in this time zone observe the Summer-time and pass then to UTC-6, except:

In Mexico, the State de Sonora
In the United States, the State of Arizona (but the reserve of the Nation Navajo observes the summer-time, while the reserve Hopi which is included in the first does not observe it)

Reciprocally, the parts of America with UTC-8 are found at the summer-time with UTC-7.
