Why Should You Adopt an Older Dog?

April 13, 2021 by M. Shane Richins Leave a Comment

Having a partner to help you when you’re raising children can mean the difference between self-confidence and a breakdown. Someone who will gently remind you to get out and go for a walk when you need some fresh air. Someone who will snuggle up to you when you are doubting yourself. Someone who won’t judge you over every parenting decision you make (like that parenting group on … [Read more...]

Moab Woman Keeps 100-Year-Old Farming Tradition Alive

April 12, 2021 by M. Shane Richins Leave a Comment

Her curly, vibrant red hair betrays her sensitive skin, but Mary Engleman just puts on her long-sleeved flannel shirt and wide brimmed hat to protect her from the unrelenting desert sun. To those who work in a climate-controlled office, the thick clothing would seem to only trade a burn from the sun for a slow, insulated roasting.  But farm work weeds out the weak, and for … [Read more...]

Recovering from Substance Abuse in Isolation

April 11, 2021 by Cathy McKitrick Leave a Comment

HEBER VALLEY ― This May, Maggie Talucci will celebrate four years of sobriety. And she credits Wasatch Crest Treatment with giving her a solid foundation for continued recovery. “The ‘Crest’ taught me how to live life substance-free and still have fun, and part of that was through their outdoor excursions. We did a lot of hiking, a lot of physically active activities,” … [Read more...]

Suspicious skies: Is Our Planet Being Inundated with Unknown Substances without Our Consent? 

March 28, 2021 by Lewi Lewis Leave a Comment

Weather modification and cloud seeding: is it really that hard to believe? If you think those long white lines left in the wake of passing airplanes scoring the sky from ear-to-ear are noticeably thicker, longer, and remain for a longer duration than they did twenty or thirty years ago, you’re not alone. A growing number of people are looking skyward and wondering: What’s … [Read more...]

Are Sports More Important than Safety? 

March 24, 2021 by Raine Martinez Leave a Comment

  High school has been extremely difficult for students because of Covid-19. For 2021 seniors, it is even tougher. Their last year of high school has been unprecedented. Things have been flipped upside down. School dances and many other events have been canceled. In hard times, students need friends and extracurricular activities to unite them as a community. Yet, … [Read more...]

Will Utah Have Enough Water to Sustain Its Booming Population?

March 23, 2021 by Eric S. Peterson Leave a Comment

If 2020 hadn’t been apocalyptic enough, Utahns looking forward to a snowy new year got drought in January — raking leaves instead of shoveling walks, skiing on artificial powder and wondering when things might resemble normal again. For Todd Adams, Director of The Utah Division of Water Resources, the dry climate is all the more reason water managers need to carefully … [Read more...]

Impact of COVID Imposed Restrictions on Ogden and Its Businesses

February 15, 2021 by Cathy McKitrick Leave a Comment

  Over the past eight months, small businesses and restaurants have struggled to survive restrictions established to confine the spread of Covid-19.  Some have shut their doors for good, among them Kaffe Mercantile’s downtown location at 2276 Washington Blvd. The popular coffee bar still operates two other cozy sites at 1221 26th St. on Ogden’s east bench and 930 … [Read more...]

Lots of Smoke, A Little Less Fire: More Human Caused Wildfires in Utah Due to COVID-19?

February 9, 2021 by Brian Fryer Leave a Comment

While skies appeared thick with smoke this past summer, and images of flaming landscapes were featured on newscasts, there were not a record number of wildfires last year.  When Utah wildfire officials closed the books on the 2020 season that ran from June 1 to November 30, they counted 1,547 total fires that burned 336,364 acres in the state and cost an estimated $60 … [Read more...]

Beavers Make a Splash in Utah: Reintroducing Beavers to Restore Watershed in Utah

February 4, 2021 by David E. Jensen Leave a Comment

  The resounding “Smack!” of a broad tail on tranquil water is how beavers signal to one another that danger lurks nearby. Beavers confronted their greatest danger in the mid-19th Century, at the time of the early fur trade, when they were hunted and trapped to near-extinction. Highly prized for their water repellency and warmth, beaver skin coats and hats became … [Read more...]

February 3, 2021 by Claire McArthur Leave a Comment

Throughout the pandemic, Utahns have found an escape from social distancing, working from home and remote learning — terms that have come to define our lives — in the beautiful natural environment we are so lucky to live in. Whether it’s a stroll through Sugarhouse Park or a strenuous trek in the Uintas, there’s never been a more important time to get out and get moving — for … [Read more...]
