Why Tree Removal in Ogden Is Different
Ogden has a different set of tree risks than the rest of the Wasatch Front.
Wind moves faster here coming off the canyon mouths, and late spring storms can snap limbs when the leaves are already out.
That combination is why we end up doing more corrective removals in Ogden and Weber County than almost anywhere else along the front.
You’ll see more mature cottonwoods, Siberian elm, Russian olive, and older ash trees in older Ogden neighborhoods. These species become brittle with age. They don’t handle heavy snow loads the same way younger, flexible hardwoods do.
If you see a tree leaning more each year, or bark starting to peel where a branch forks, it’s time to get eyes on it.
A simple inspection can tell you if it’s time to prune… or time to remove it before it causes damage. Prevention is cheaper than insurance deductibles.
Real Local Tree Removal Examples
We complete tree removals in Ogden every week. Here are a few examples so you can see what we mean.
North Ogden — Cottonwood Removal After Wind Shift
A homeowner in North Ogden called after a windstorm pushed a cottonwood into a steeper lean toward their shed. The trunk had a deep vertical crack we could see from the ground. We staged a crane removal to lower large sections safely over the home. No damage, and the property owner didn’t have to stress about ripping out their shed or fence. This is a pretty common risk in North Ogden — heavy older cottonwoods in wind paths.
South Ogden — Elm Tree Overhanging Driveway
South Ogden has a lot of older elm stock. We removed a mature elm that was overhanging a driveway with consistent limb drop. The risk there wasn’t the trunk — it was the unpredictable shearing branches. This was a straightforward removal. Clean drop zone, sectioning, stump grind, and we were out in one day. If you’ve got constant branch drop on your car or sidewalk, that’s usually an early warning sign that the core’s drying out.
Riverdale — Emergency Removal After Overnight Microburst
Riverdale gets sucker gusts off the river corridor. One homeowner woke up to a broken main leader hanging over the master bedroom. We came out same-day because the split was active. Had that limb torn the rest of the way, it would’ve punched through the roof. We stabilized the section with rigging, cut it down safely, and then removed the remaining trunk. No injuries, no roof damage. This is why emergency response matters in Weber County — overnight failures happen here fast.

Top Spots in Ogden, Utah
Historic 25th Street
Ogden’s Historic 25th Street isn’t just a relic of the past—it’s a place where history and modern life collide. You can still feel the echoes of the brothels, bootleggers, and gamblers who once gave the street its edge, even as it buzzes with breweries, art galleries, and local shops today.
Born from the Transcontinental Railroad, 25th Street fell silent when rail travel faded—but that pause saved it. While other towns bulldozed their history, Ogden’s stood strong, ready for a second act.
Now it’s the heartbeat of the city—home to the Farmers Market, art strolls, and street festivals. Other famous cities have famous streets, you haven’t really seen Ogden until you’ve walked Historic 25th Street.

River District
Ogden’s River District has come a long way from its rough beginnings. Once dismissed as a swampy dumping ground, the Ogden River was heavily abused during the city’s industrial boom. But decades of cleanup and restoration transformed it into the only urban blue-ribbon trout fishery west of the Mississippi.
Now the river is Ogden’s pride—lined with local restaurants, pubs, and homes, all connected by the scenic Ogden River Parkway. Grab a craft beer and pizza at Slackwater, savor a steak at Prairie Schooner or Timbermine, or enjoy breakfast over the water at The Oaks up Ogden Canyon.
A bike ride or walk along the Parkway winds past the Botanical Gardens, Dinosaur Park, and all the way to Rainbow Gardens—proof that Ogden’s river story is one of remarkable renewal.
The "Vard"
Before the age of smartphones and streaming, Friday nights in Ogden revolved around one simple ritual—cruising the ’Vard. From the 1950s through the ’80s, Washington Boulevard was where teens met up, cars gleamed under the streetlights, and music poured from open windows.
Today, the ’Vard still buzzes, just in new ways. You might be tossing axes, sipping craft beer, or lining up for tacos at a local food cart—especially near 26th and Washington when two-for-one deals hit on Wednesdays.
This stretch between 26th and 20th Streets has become a hub for dining, nightlife, and art. The historic Bigelow Hotel and Peery’s Egyptian Theater bring a touch of old-school grandeur, while annual events like the Ogden Marathon, Pioneer Days, and the Electric Light Parade keep the street’s lively spirit alive year-round.
