National Rivers Month


Oh, the irony. Today marks the first day of National Rivers Month and our rivers are too dangerous to visit. But never fear, we still have 29 days left to celebrate our beautiful rivers.

Plan a day this month to enjoy one of Utah's many rivers.

  • Take your family fishing. You can catch brown, rainbow and brook trout, as well as, whitefish at the Ogden River. Check out this website for more information on fishing in Ogden.
  • Try a family rafting adventure at Weber River and other locations. Visit this website for more info.
  • Organize a family or community river clean-up day. Visit americanrivers.org for more details.
  • Last, but not least, spend a day at Ogden's beautiful river parkway. It's a great place to walk or bike along the river and stop for a picnic. You can play at the Big Dee park or visit the Dinosaur Park. Stop by Ogden's skate park or enjoy the MTC gardens.

Do you know of any other ways to celebrate rivers this month? Share by leaving a comment.
