Logan Canyon
Mile-high vertical limestone cliffs tower above dense forest, the winding Logan River flows to Cache Valley, and mountain wildlife adds to the picturesque canyon which ends at the turquoise waters of Bear Lake to the east.
During the summer, locals and visitors alike enjoy a variety of outdoor activities in Logan Canyon, from fishing, mountain biking, and canoeing to rock climbing, hiking and camping.
Logan Canyon is also popular during the winter with more than 300 miles of groomed snowmobile trails and the oldest family run ski resort in the U.S., Beaver Mountain Ski Resort.
