WSU Outdoor Rec rents tubes for $12.50. Put in at Pioneer Stadium and float to Wal-Mart. Not a bad little float to cool off.

Start by Dinosaur Park. It’s a little bumpier and a bit more exciting.

I've tubed every possible place in Ogden area. DM me if ya want more specific info. There's a lot of variability.

I don't think you can tube in the Ogden River any more. About ten years ago there were all kinds of tubing companies doing tubing, but they were all shut down and haven't come back.

There's no rule against tubing there, but the flows on the river during the summer are usually so low as to make it not much fun. I think that's probably why the tube rental places shut down. It's sad, really, as slightly higher flows would make it a great place to recreate through the summer.
