Utah’s fall weather is perfect for outdoor adventures – it’s not too hot, and it’s not too cold…it’s just right. Add in some beautiful fall foliage, and you’ve got the ultimate day trip. Many Utahns don’t know about Stokes Nature Center, but it should definitely be on your fall bucket list. It’s a hidden gem in the mouth of Logan Canyon, and it’s absolutely gorgeous this time of year.
Logan Canyon is one of Utah's most beautiful spots, and during autumn months, it's absolutely bursting with color.
The canyon is home to Stokes Nature Center, a non-profit center that opened back in 1997. It holds the official permit for education in the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest.
Stop by to join in one of the center's community programs. Weekly story time, called "Nature Tales" is set up for kids ages two to six, and it occurs every Friday at 11 a.m.
Visitors of all ages will enjoy the lecture series called "Canyon Conversations," where you'll find out all kinds of cool things about Logan Canyon and the flora and fauna all around us. Join in Canyon Conversations every Saturday at 11 a.m.
Visit the Stokes Nature Center website to see what’s going on there this week, then hop over to its Facebook page and follow so you won’t miss a single event.
