Like many parts of the Southwest, Utah is a very diverse state. While you might most commonly associate it with dry, hot deserts - visitors will be surprised to find majestic mountains and cool rivers full of fish to catch up north. Logan Utah is one such place, located about an hour and a half north of Salt Lake City and about 20 miles south of the Idaho border.
While skiers might know the Logan Utah area more for the Beaver Mountain ski area, the reality is that Logan has a pretty diverse amount of opportunity for anyone looking to explore the outdoors all year round.
