Logan River (Utah)

Logan River (Utah)

The Logan River is a tributary of Little Bear River in Utah, USA. It is currently being studied to determine whether it is suitable for National Wild and Scenic Rivers designation. [ [http://www.fs.fed.us/r4/rivers/index.shtml Wild and Scenic Rivers] - USDA Forest Service Intermountain Region]

Course

The Logan River rises in the Bear River Mountains in Idaho and flows south, then southwest through Logan Canyon and the Wasatch-Cache National Forest to the city of Logan in the Cache Valley. In this valley it joins the Little Bear River a few kilometers west of Logan and about eight kilometers upstream from where the Little Bear River joins the Bear River.

Length

The Logan River has never been measured accurately, and the true length is unknown (but it is thought to be between 48 and 110 miles in length). The headwaters are unexplored and unmapped.
