Cache County

Cache County is an administrative region in northern Utah that borders Idaho. The area contains diverse terrain ranging from mountain ranges to river valleys and farmland.

The name comes from the French word for hiding place, used by 19th-century fur trappers for their storage sites. The county was established in 1857 and later developed into an agricultural center.

The Criminal Division of Cache County operates with six prosecutors who handle cases across multiple courts, including the First District Court.

The county is best explored by car, as roads connect the various towns and landscapes throughout the region. Visitors should know the area experiences four distinct seasons, with winters being snowy and rural roads sometimes challenging to navigate.

The region is a dairy farming hub with extensive fields of hay and alfalfa that dominate agricultural production. This network of farms shapes daily life and the economic identity of local communities.
