Logan Canyon Scenic Byway
Limber Pine Trail/Logan Canyon Summit, UT
At 7,800 feet this is the high point of the byway. Here also visitors can find an easy one-mile loop trail perfect for families with children. The trail uses a series of switchbacks to navigate an elevation changes of about 80 feet as it passes through the fir and aspen forest and meadows abundant with wildflowers even in high summer. Interpretation sites along the way point out local nature to the hiker.
The goal is a large limber pine, which is actually several trees grown together. It is much older than most other trees in the area, and in fact was once believed to be the oldest and largest limber pine in the country.
There are fine views of Bear Lake from several points along the trail.
