PST to MST Converter – Convert Pacific Time to Mountain Time

MST is 1 hour ahead of PST, so to convert mentally, add 1 hour to your PST time. For example: 9:00 AM PST = 10:00 AM MST. Our converter automatically adjusts for Daylight Saving Time so you always get the right result.

MST (Mountain Standard Time, UTC-7) is 1 hour ahead of PST (Pacific Standard Time, UTC-8) during standard time. For example, 9:00 AM PST = 10:00 AM MST. During DST periods, this difference changes by 1 hour when one or both zones observe Daylight Saving Time — our converter automatically applies the correct offset for any date you select.

The best overlap for standard business hours (9 AM–5 PM) in both zones is 09:00–16:00 PST = 10:00–17:00 MST. Schedule recurring calls in this window to keep both sides within normal working hours. Remember to re-check the window in March and November (or March/October for European zones) when DST transitions can shift the overlap by 1 hour.

Yes. PST (Pacific Standard Time) observes Daylight Saving Time. Clocks spring forward to PDT (UTC-7) on the second Sunday in March, and fall back to PST on the first Sunday in November. During the DST period, the difference with MST changes by 1 hour. Our converter always uses the current offset for the date you select.

Major cities in the PST (Pacific Standard Time, UTC-8) timezone include: Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Portland, Las Vegas, Vancouver. These cities switch to PDT (UTC-7) from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November.

Major cities in the MST (Mountain Standard Time, UTC-7) timezone include: Denver, Salt Lake City, Calgary, Albuquerque, Boise. These cities switch to MDT (UTC-6) from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November.

MST is 1 hour ahead of PST. The best overlap for business hours is 09:00–16:00 PST = 10:00–17:00 MST. Always include both local times in calendar invites (for example, "2:00 PM PST / 3:00 PM MST MST"). Double-check around March and November (or March/October for European zones) when DST transitions can shift the offset by 1 hour.
