RANDOLPH, Utah. September 9, 2019. The Bear River Heritage Area straddles the Idaho-Utah border where the Great Basin and the Rocky Mountains meet. It is home to the Northwestern Band of the Shoshone Nation, a strong agricultural economy, history-laced landscape, Mormon history, the Oregon Trail and abundant natural beauty.

Lisa Duskin –Goede, Bear River Heritage Area coordinator,  passed out several travel brochures which outline historic sites, cemeteries, museum and pioneer trails in a loop from Logan, Utah Highway 89 to Soda Springs, Idaho and back to Logan through Preston, Idaho on Highway 34

The website  www.bearriverheritage.com is a  guide to a fascinating variety of natural, historical and cultural experiences found within the Bear River Basin of Northern Utah and Southeastern Idaho.

She is also working with Paris, Idaho to highlight the extraordinary pioneer architecture still in use today. She also works with the Bear Lake Convention and Tourist Bureau  bearlake.org.
