The cave was closed to the public on Oct. 1, 1997 to ensure the viability of a rare and special biological community of Townsend's Big-Eared Bats that is located in Logan Cave. The bats are particularly vulnerable to human disturbance during their periods of mating, hibernation, and maternity colony, which runs from about October to August each year. The Big-Eared Bat is listed as a sensitive species by both the Forest Service and Utah Division of Wildlife Resources. To aid with protecting this species during their vulnerable period, it is prohibited to go into or within 250 feet of the mouth of Logan Cave.

The hike to the summit is fairly gradual by high point standards and very scenic. Naomi Peak is a good family hike with a little experience. There are only a couple of steep sections. This is a peak to do in mid to late summer, from about July to mid-August when the wildflowers are in bloom. There are few other areas in Utah that have such stunning wildflowers. From the summit, there are great views of the surrounding peaks and canyon. Note: The trailhead now requires a small fee ($5 in 2013). In my opinion, the fee is unfortunate. There are picnic areas and a pit toilet near the trailhead. In addition, Tony Grove has a fantastic campground and the lake has good fishing. History: The peak was supposedly named in the 1870's by a surveyor who was missing his wife. Tony Grove Lake has been a popular destination for Logan locals since then and serves as a starting point to many trails in the area, as well as camping and fishing.
