Echo, Utah

Echo is a census-designated place located in northwestern Summit County, Utah, United States.

From Echo, helper locomotives were added, when needed, to push trains up the steep grade to Wahsatch.

However, the arrival of the interstate relegated the town to a few quaint buildings; some homes, a motel, tavern, restaurant and bus station.

Nearby, Echo Canyon is a magnificent spectacle with its high rock sides and colorful scenery.

[5] Echo has a continental climate (Köppen Dfb) characterized by cold, snowy winters and hot summers with high diurnal temperature variation.
