  • An acquaintance told me about some tunnels near the top of the Ogden Canyon Waterfall in Ogden, Utah and I wanted to check them out, so I did. They had dug them as part of the Pineview Water Pipeline Project. They're kind of creepy, but make for a fun hike. This was a great place to explore. My other goal was to get to the top of the waterfall, which I did. Enjoy the video and thanks for watching!

    A response from the Netherlands:
    I walked the pipeline there in 1974, with the maintenance engineer.
    The pipeline was then mainly made of wood and twice a week the technician walked over the pipeline.
    Where it leaked, he hit a wooden wedge in the pipeline.
    We also walked through those tunnels along the pipeline.
    Nice to see what it looks like now.
    Regards, Wilfred de Bruine from Holland.

    If you start on 7th street theres a road that takes you right to the top of the waterfall. Takes about 10 15 minutes

    You went the hard way. If you go over by the dinosaur park there are some trails off to the right as you exit the canyon. You hike up those foothills and you'll eventually hit a grated road that wraps around it'll take you to where the water comes out. You can climb up inside where the water comes out, its really cool. Then you can find those tunnels. There's a little building up there too.

    If you go into the tunnel on the furthest west part of that water tube, you can climb over or under it and go out onto a ledge that overlooks the canyon

    Back in the 70's, there used to be some hot springs very near there on the other side of the road right next to the river. Someone had taken time to build some pools out of rocks and concrete. Spent a lot of time there on Friday nights in the winter. Wonder if they're still there ? Oh... when I was a teen, you could ride a motorcycle to the falls. Access was from a trail near the dam. The pipe line was not cemented in until the 1980's. The boards were a walkway on top of the wooden pipeline. And, you can drive just about all the way to the falls from the other side... except the gate is probably locked and marked No Trespassing. As kids, that was just an invitation to come on in. Ah.... and at the end, you confirmed that the hot pots are still there.

    I think the purpose of the wood is to soften the blow from large rocks/boulders so they have a lesser chance of breaking the concrete.

    There is another one about 300 yards off of HWY 39 up the road about 15 miles east from where your video was recorded. It's on the south side of the river, approx 50 yards above the river. It's pretty awesome. During the spring it fills up with water from snowmelt and runoff, but it gets dry as a bone for a few weeks in late summer.

    Been there --- lett me tell you, Ogden has a lot of positive features; however, what people don't know, there is a lot of crime. Car theft, gang activity and drugs. I've spoken to some relatives in this area and there is an opinion that Weber County (Sheriff) has some individuals on the take. Maybe even higher ups. From what I've been told, appears to be a lot of incompetence, as well.
    Again, however, the outdoor activities are nice and many nice friendly people live here; such as the individual in the video.
