Wood Camp Campground (UT)

Wood Camp Campground is located just off the Logan Canyon Scenic Byway at an elevation of 5,600 feet, on the banks of the Logan River just 13 miles east of Logan, Utah. It is a riverside location where the sounds of the river provide a pleasant background to an enjoyable, relaxing stay. This campground offers 6 single campsites. Each site offers a picnic table, fire ring and plenty of shade. Vault restroom facilities are available. The campground provides access to biking, climbing, hiking, fishing, horse riding, and more in the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest. The Old Juniper Trailhead, located just outside the campground, leads to the Jardine Juniper, which at 1500 years old is thought to be the oldest tree in the Rocky Mountains. Logan Canyon Scenic Byway provides spectacular scenery and access to great recreational areas, beginning at the mouth of the canyon on the east edge of Logan. Deeply cut, nearly vertical limestone walls and rock formations laden with fossils greet travelers entering the canyon, and the Logan River, popular for trout fishing, parallels the route. As autumn approaches, the lush greens of this high mountain passage tip with brilliant gold, red and yellow. A steady climb to the summit results in a sweeping view of the unique turquoise water of 20-mile-long Bear Lake. Logan itself has the fully operational turn-of-the-century Jensen Farm, modern cheese factories, and the resident Utah Festival Opera Company. The canyon hosts summer and winter recreationalists alike, who find activities like hiking, camping, fishing, snowmobiling, skiing and hunting.
