While Ogden Nordic is dog friendly, it is required that they remain on-leash for your entire ski. This area gets busy on weekends, with both humans and wildlife. Moose are known to frequent this area, so please keep a safe distance from them. In addition to cross country skiing, Ogden Nordic also has fat tire bike and snowshoe-only trails to offer something for everyone.
 

Directions

From SLC head north on I-15 and take exit 349. Drive 2.7 miles then turn left on N 1050 E. Right on E 3100 N. This will put you on North Ogden Canyon Road. Drive the very narrow and windy road over the divide, then turn left on E 4100 N. Drive 1.3 miles then veer left onto N 3300 E. Turn left again at 5950 North, following the signs for Ogden Nordic. Drive to the very end of the road, where Ogden Nordic is located.

Here’s a driving map.

 The temperatures were hanging around 40-45F, so the snow was staring to get nice and soft.

Just around this bend, however, there was a shaded section of trail that was really icy. I didn’t feel super comfortable skiing down it so I took my skis off – check out my YouTube video below for how that turned out.

Ogden Nordic is well known for having a lot of moose in the area. It’s a very wet area with several meadows, so they like to hang out here. This is another reason why dogs need to be leashed, for in case you come across the active wildlife here.
