Print it. Bag it. Bring it.Phones die, screens crack, and most of this water has no signal. Print this map, fold it into a zip-top bag or dry bag with your license, and you have a backup your electronics can’t give you. Every marker is numbered so you can say exactly where you are.
| # | Point | Type | Lat, Lon | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Pineview Dam Head of the tailwater | Dam / hazard | 41.25435, -111.84238 | Dam at the top of the reach; OSM records the operator as the Ogden River Water Users Association. Flow below here is release-driven, so check the gauge before committing to a float. |
| 2 | Ogden River, Weber County - special-regulation reach Pineview Dam to the first bridge | Regulation section limit | 41.25383, -111.85036 | Utah DWR names a reach from Pineview Dam downstream to the first bridge, about one-half mile. This SR 39 crossing is that bridge - it sits 0.43 mi below the dam. Read the current guidebook for what applies here. |
| 3 | USGS 10140100 Ogden River below Pineview Reservoir USGS 10140100 | USGS gauge | 41.25439, -111.85577 | Identity confirmed against the USGS NWIS site service; the monitoring-station node on the bank carries the same ref. Coordinates taken from the site roster, not from the map. |
| 4 | Unnamed drop at the canyon mouth Beside Canal Access Road | Dam / hazard | 41.23724, -111.92396 | OSM tags a waterway=waterfall here, next to a canal access road where the canyon opens out - most likely a diversion structure. Not field-verified; scout before running it. |

| 6 | George S. Eccles Dinosaur Park Ogden River Parkway | Park / conservation area | 41.23808, -111.93760 | Riverside city park on the Ogden River Parkway at the canyon mouth. Paid attraction, but the parkway and riverbank alongside it are open. |
| 7 | Harrison Boulevard bridge SR 203 | Bridge crossing | 41.23682, -111.94616 | First of the three signed arterial crossings through the city; useful for orientation on a printed sheet. |
| 8 | Ogden Botanical Gardens Operated by Utah State University | Park / conservation area | 41.23496, -111.95311 | Riverside gardens on the parkway with parking; a convenient mid-river foot access. |

| 10 | Washington Boulevard bridge US 89 | Bridge crossing | 41.23375, -111.97019 | Downtown crossing; the restored river-corridor reach runs from about here downstream. |
| 11 | Ogden River Parkway slipway Ogden River Parkway | Access / boat ramp | 41.23332, -111.97331 | The only slipway OSM records on the reach, 8 m off the channel on the parkway. Left unnamed in OSM; named here for the parkway it sits on. |
| 12 | High Adventure Park Ogden River Parkway | Park / conservation area | 41.23415, -111.97438 | Riverside park on the parkway beside the restored downtown reach. |
| 13 | Wall Avenue bridge SR 204 | Bridge crossing | 41.23424, -111.97857 | Last signed arterial crossing before the river leaves the city grid. |
| 14 | 21st Street Pond Community pond beside the river | Point of interest | 41.23279, -111.99263 | Small still water about 150 m off the Ogden River with its own trail; a separate fishery from the river itself. |

Ogden - the city at the canyon mouth, with full services, tackle shops, guides and an airport nearby.
Ogden Canyon road - the highway following the river, with pullouts giving access along its length.
Huntsville - the village above the dam at Pineview, with food and lodging.
Pineview Reservoir - the impoundment above, a separate warmwater and trout fishery with ramps.
South Fork Ogden River - the tributary entering Pineview, a distinct trout stream worth its own day.
Weber River - the larger regional river nearby, offering bigger water and a different fishery.
Snowbasin area - the mountain country above the canyon for a non fishing day.
Spring: runoff and reservoir management push flows high, and the fishing improves sharply once levels settle.
Summer: releases keep the upper river cool and fishable while irrigation demand governs how much water is in the canyon.
Fall: flows drop, brown trout move to spawn, and this is the best and most popular fishing of the year.
Winter: the tailwater stays open below the dam, whitefish feed st
