Nearby Attractions

Logan Canyon National Scenic Byway: From historic Cache Valley on the west, this byway winds northeast through the national forest to Bear Lake spanning the Utah/Idaho border. Along the way, 500 million years of geologic history unfold in the lower canyon's deeply incised walls and fromations laden with fossils. In autumn, the colors are unparalleled.

The description, directions and fees are the Forest Service’s own words, from its record on Recreation.gov.
