Beus Canyon Trail

The Beus Canyon Trail is a part of the Great Western Trail. The Beus Canyon segment goes from the east side of Ogden City up to a saddle just south of Mt Ogden Peak. It is easy to get to the lower part of the trail if you go to the mouth of Beus Canyon. The trail goes along Beus Creek until it reaches a meadow. The meadow is known as Fern Valley for obvious reasons. The trail goes along the south fork of the stream and then goes up a ridge between Beus Canyon and Birch Canyon. As the trail goes north it continues to climb at a steep pitch. The saddle is just south of Mount Ogden Peak.
