Welcome to the Cache Hikers Website 

Hikes are scheduled for most weekends from mid-May to mid-October, and winter trips are scheduled from January to mid March.  Participants meet at the southwest corner of the Smith's Marketplace parking lot at 750 North Main Street in Logan, Utah.  Unless noted otherwise (below), the meeting time is 8:00 a.m. for summer hikes and 10:00 a.m. for winter trips.  Participants should bring food, water, and appropriate clothing.
 

It is the participant’s responsibility to be sure the trip is within his/her ability and stamina, and to have adequate equipment, including gear for weather, sun, and insects (for winter trips, trail crampons ("cleats" or "spikes") may be useful if conditions are not suitable for skis or snowshoes). Please contact the trip leader for more information.


The 2023 edition of Cache Trails is now available! Edited by Dave Wallace and illustrated by Margaret Pettis, the 2006 Cache Trails: A hiking guide for the trails of Cache Valley, Utah, has been completely updated for 2023, with new illustrations and maps. Several more trails have been added, with up-to-date trail data and detailed descriptions for each of the 53 designated hikes. User-friendly features now include an index, lists of "favorite hikes," elevation profiles, and GPS coordinates. With sturdy pages and rounded corners, it should be a welcome addition to any hiker's backpack. It's currently available at the Cache Valley Visitors Bureau, the Logan Ranger District, The Sportsman, the Island Market, USU's Outdoor Program, and through the book's publisher, Bridgerland Audubon Society.
