Logan Canyon Scenic Byway
Second Dam, UT

From summer to spring, Second Dam is one of the most popular fishing spots on the Byway. Just a short drive up the canyon, Second Dam is a pretty wilderness getaway with mountains on all sides and shady picnic areas.

Although you'll see wildlife all over in the canyon, some of the most unique wildlife resides at Second Dam. In the fall, you can watch for beavers as they build their own dam. In the summer, bats come out at night and swoop over the water to catch a tasty insect. And of course, the angler's favorite are the trout that swim in the water during every season.

The US Forest Service and Logan City jointly manage six picnic sites at Second Dam. The area is fully accessible and includes two parking areas, a restroom, a shoreline boardwalk fishing pier and a bridge across the Logan River to the River Trail. Fish are stocked in Second Dam each year. This is a popular fishing spot for children.
