While I was attending college here in Logan, Utah I talked to other students who were attending Utah State University from all over the country, and world for that matter.  People told me all the time that there was nothing to do in Logan.  I was shocked to hear this.  I’ve lived in this area most of my life and I know there is an adundance of things here in the valley.  Logan has great things to offer for almost anyone.

For the outdoor enthusiast Logan is a paradise.  Logan is located in Beautiful Cache Valley and surrounded by mountains in every direction. If you enjoy fishing, hiking, mountain biking, canoeing, kayaking, snow skiing, snowmobiling, four wheeling, or water skiing then Logan is a great place to live.  With all of these great activities so close you may have a hard time fitting them all in on your weekends.

I personally am an avid snow skiier.  I anxiously await the snow every year so I can spend my days up at Beaver Mountain, our local ski resort.  Beaver Mountain in my opinion is Utah’s best kept secret.  Being a small resort travelers pass by for the larger resorts in Salt Lake City.  During the week there are no lines at the resort and in the morning you have access to some of the freshest powder in Utah.

The best part of Logan is being able to spend the day out on an adventure and your evenings out on the town.  In addition to Logan’s many outdoor adventures there are many cultural activities.  Logan is home to the Utah Festival Opera Company and Ellen Eccles Theatre.  Visitors from all over the United States come to Logan for the Opera.  When out on the town Logan is the home of many of Utah’s best hometown restaurants including the Coppermill, Blackstone, Hamilton’s, Cafe Sabor, Le Nonne, and many more.

Logan has many sporting events that the locals enjoy supporting.  Logan is the home of the Utah State University Aggies.  The Logan residents are proud and loyal fans of their Aggies.  The Spectrum where the Aggies Basketball team plays is almost always a sell out crowd.  It has been said that The Spectrum is the hardest court to play on in the West due to the loud fans.

If you are considering a move to a place where you will always have things to do then Logan, Utah is the place.  And for those students at USU who think there is nothing to do in Logan, well it’s time to get out of the dorm and experience Logan.
