<map lat='41.7259' lng='-111.834326' zoom='10' view='3' float='right' /> Logan is the largest city in Cache Valley, Utah. It's said to be the "Safest Metropolitan Area" in the United States. The city has free public transport throughout much of the area, so it's very easy to get around.

Hitching Out
South towards Salt lake city, Brigham City
Highway 89 heads south from Logan to Brigham City, passing through "Sardine Canyon." There are two options for hitching, and either work great.
Option 1 Take Bus #7 to the McDonald's (it's last stop before it turns around), and walk south along Hwy 89 about 3 to 5 minutes to pass the businesses. Thumb from there with or without a sign. [1]
Option 2 Another option would be to take Bus #11 to Nibley and hitch from there. However, it's really faster to use bus #7 and hitch by the golf course.[2]
North towards Idaho
West towards Tremonton
East towards Bear Lake, Garden City
Take bus #1 and get off right before it comes back to the university the second time (so before it turns right on 700 North). Walk East, down Highway 89 (you will walk past the golf course). You can hitch from the road, but cars are usually going too fast, so it's best just to walk all the way down to "First Dam," and hitch directly on the bridge. Besides, it's beautiful scenery, it would be a pity to not walk all the way down. [3]
Public Transportation
The Cache Valley Transit District buses run every half hour normally, but some lines run every 15 minutes to and from Utah State University. [4]
