Hooper, Utah

The story begins with John C. Fremont and Kit Carson who passed through the area that is now Hooper on a rubber boat while on their way to explore the Great Salt Lake and Fremont's Island. The town became known as "Muskrat Springs" and was mainly used as herding ground by William H. Hooper, Utah's delegate to Congress. In 1854 he built himself a shelter for his herdsmen near what is now known as Hale's Bend. A monument crafted by the Dauthers of the Utah Pioneers now stands at the original location of the Herd House.

Life in Hooper is quiet and peaceful. Traditionally, Hooper has been mainly agricultural, with many residents growing crops or raising animals. As the town develops further, the rural roots are still there. There are multiple parks and the Weber River flows through the northern part of the city. With a population of just over 9,000, there's still plenty of space for new construction.
