Bear River National Forest

Bear River National Forest

Bear River National Forest was established as the Bear River Forest Reserve by the U.S. Forest Service in Utah on May 28, 1906 with 267,920 acres by combining the Logan Forest Reserve with other lands. On March 4, 1907 it became a National Forest. On July 1, 1908 part of the forest was combined with Pocatello National Forest and the remainder was used to establish Cache National Forest. The name was discontinued. The lands are presently included in Wasatch-Cache National Forest.
