📍 Destination Overview
Ogden, in northern Utah, became a 19th-century western rail hub when the transcontinental railroad met nearby in 1869. Union Station now houses railroad and Browning firearms museums, while 25th Street keeps restaurants and bars in brick warehouses. With Wasatch peaks for skiing and cycling, this rugged red-rock mountain city is well worth a visit.
