Utah's Best Snowmobile Trails

Utah's snowmobile season is now kicking into gear. Our friends at Beaver Creek Lodge are already offering guided trips and others will be opening up during the next few days.

Beaver Creek is located in the far northern part of Utah, near Bear Lake and the Utah/Idaho border. That area was blessed with early snow and so the trails are accessible a bit earlier than normal. But most of our snowmobile areas open about Christmas time.

If you are looking for a guided trip or rental machines, these businesses will take good care of you. The video is courtesy of Beaver Creek Lodge and shows some of the fun.

If you want to do it yourself, here are links to info about my favorite trails.

• Logan Canyon area
• Highway 150 in the Uintas
• Strawberry area
• Cedar Mountain area
• East Fork area

The trails I mention above are spread throughout the state. Logan Canyon, as noted, is about as far north as you can get in Utah. Highway 150, the Mirror Lake Highway, is also in northern Utah.

The Strawberry area is farther south, approaching the center portion of our state.

Cedar Mountain is just east of Cedar City, in southern Utah. Some of the trails on Cedar Mountain overlook the Zion Park area.

The East For is also in southern Utah, just west of Bryce Canyon.

Each of these areas is unique and beautiful in its own way. It's time to get out the sleds.
