Ogden Canyon Scenic Drive
Length: Approximately 40 miles, 1 way
Location: Start from Ogden's 12th street heading east through Ogden Canyon and then continuing east toward the Wasatch Cache National Forest Boundary.
Drive Time: 45 minutes to 1 1/2 hrs.
This jaunt will take you up Ogden Canyon, which snakes along the Ogden River heading east. As you emerge from the canyon, the Ogden Valley will unfold before you exposing Pineview Reservoir and the nearby lakeside hamlet of Huntsville. Make sure you allow yourself enough time to indulge in one of the great culinary wonders of the new world... a Star Burger from the Shooting Star Saloon in Downtown Huntsville. We guarantee you've never had anything like it. Also, check out the stuffed St. Bernard's head on the wall to make this surreal stop complete. As you continue east you'll be on your way to some incredible viewpoints within the Monte Cristo Mountain Range. Roll down your windows and breathe deeply. This is the way air is supposed to smell.
