Belongs to UTSH?

edit

Just because the scenic byway crosses through the canyon doesn't mean it should be belonging to the UTSH project, IMO. A link over to US-89 in Utah should be sufficient, right? CL06:07, 13 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

It was added because Logan Canyon Scenic Byway redirects here. With that said you could argue it either way.Dave (talk) 06:14, 13 August 2008 (UTC)Reply
I see, that makes more sense now. We should probably redirect that to a section of the route description on US-89 in that case; the redirect was created way before US-89 had its own Utah article, what do you think? CL06:20, 13 August 2008 (UTC)Reply
Actually, I think US-89 in Utah should have a {{main|Logan Canyon}} in the sub section that talks about the route north of Logan. I could be convinced either way, but am leaning towards no, as the US-89 in Utah will get very "road geeked up" just by the nature of the beast while Logan Canyon will hopefully stay focused on the scenic aspects.

Fair enough, let's leave this discussion open for other editors as it is one for and one against (which by default means we keep it as is). CL06:29, 13 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

I say leave the redirect for now for the byway, tag that page as UTSH, and then someone should get around to creating an article for the byway --Admrb♉ltz (tclog) 00:56, 17 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

That sounds like a good compromise, I'm all for it - CL02:10, 17 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

Used as backdrop for Sears Catalog

edit

This claim has been unreferenced in this article for a long time. As someone who has spent many picture perfect moments in Logan Canyon, I don't doubt that this canyon could have been used as a backdrop for the Sears Catalog. The problem is no proof. Doing a google search yields a lot of hits, unfortunately, most are one line claims, and most likely lifted from this Wikipedia article. I also did a search for Sears Catalog covers. I found about a half-dozen or so eBay postings and book dealers that had scans of front covers of Sears catalogues for sale. I could not recognize any as being of Logan Canyon, but could eliminate plenty as wrong type of scenery. Most of the ones on-line are of a ranch or house with autum foliage in the background, almost none were of canyon type scenery. Unfortunately, dozens more did not have scans of the front covers. So what do we do? I'm of the opinion that this should be deleted if no-one can provide a source, or at least a specific year to narrow down the search. Dave (talk) 07:29, 11 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Sounds like trivia, even if true. Take it out back and shoot it. --NE2 08:55, 11 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
