 Logan
is a very attractive, small city situated in the verdant Cache Valley.
The Bear River Mountains (really the northernmost extension of the
Wasatch Range) rise just east of town while
the exceptionally steep Wellsville Mountains provide a pretty backdrop
to the Cache Valley farmlands to the west. Logan boasts a handsome downtown
area and pretty tree lined residential neighborhoods. Its architectural
focal point is the gleaming Logan Temple set on a hill near the center
of town. Utah State University, with its 20,000 students, adds youthful
energy to the pleasant rural town. Unlike cities of the Wasatch Front
(Ogden, Salt Lake City, Provo) that share a sprawling urban area, Logan
benefits from being a bit isolated, and is by any measure a very inviting
place.
The mountains surrounding Logan provide good opportunities for hiking, biking, fishing and camping, and in winter downhill and cross-country skiing. Logan has plenty of motels and restaurants and all the other shops and services you'd expect in a moderate-sized city.
Logan is located on Hwy 89, about 80 miles north of Salt Lake City and 45 miles north of Ogden.
