Along to trail to Logan for BYU Football at Utah State

Hopefully no. 13 BYU Football will have a healthy showing of Cougar fans at the always-hostile Maverik Stadium as they take on the Utah State Aggies Friday night. Mary’s longtime family friend Jenna Dye, and her husband Jeremy, have lived in Logan for nine years and were kind enough to share their best suggestions for things to do and places to eat if you’ll be spending any time in Cache Valley this weekend. As always, comment any additional suggestions for restaurants or activities below, and let us know if you try any that we recommended!

Things to do:

Logan Canyon — It’s the perfect time to take a drive to see all the beautiful, fall leaves.

Wind Cave or Crimson Trail — While you’re up in the canyon, you might as well stop and hike the Wind Cave Trail or the Crimson Trail. The Wind Cave Trail is steep at parts, but not too difficult. Fun for families. Great view from the top. The Crimson Trail is a little more difficult, but is beautiful the whole hike.

Zootah — If you want something for younger kids, Zootah, our small, local zoo, is fun. You can see the whole zoo in about an hour and there are options to feed the ducks and other animals.

Places to eat:

Beehive grill — Great variety of American food, homemade root beer, gluten free options.

El Toro Viejo — Fun family atmosphere, great Mexican food, good prices, large portions.

Sabores — International menu, something for everyone all in one place, great food. Also gluten free options.

A lot of people rave about Aggie Creamery, which I’m sure is good, but my family loves Charlie’s Supreme Ice Cream. Angie’s is also a local favorite, but we don’t go there very often.
