  • Utah Lake Watch Report 2008

    Utah Lake Watch Report 2008

    Utah Lake Watch Report 2008 Utah State University Water Quality Extension Prepared by: Eric Peterson Introduction Utah Lake Watch (ULW) is a statewide monitoring program which enlists the help of volun teers to ga in ins ig ht on the h ealth of Ut ah’ s l ak es and reservoi rs. Th ese d at a help the Utah Division of Water Quality in their lake protection programs, and provide lake managers with a better picture of the health of their lake. Major objectives of the program include: • acquiring baseline data for Utah’s lakes and reservoirs; • providing education to the citizens of the state on the importance of healthy lakes, how lakes function, and how we monitor lakes; and • demonstrating the effectiveness of citizen monitoring in collecting water quality data which can be used to better manage and protect our lakes and reservoirs. To meet these objectives, Utah Lake Watch participants are trained to measure the transparency of a particular lake or reservoir on a regular basis from May until September. The participants record these readings and weather observations on a data sheet, and return the data to USU Water Quality Extension at the end of the season. USU Water Quality Extension compiles the raw data and delivers it electronically to the Utah Division of Water Quality. In addition, they summarize the results for each lake and return these summaries to the citizen volunteers. All of these results and interpretations are contained in this annual report. Participants measure transparency using a Secchi disk. The measurement itself is very easy; the Secchi disk, which is a white and black weighted disk attached to a line, is lowered into the water until it is no longer visible.

A special thanks goes out to Ogden-Eccles Conference Center, Hampton Inn and Suites, Union Grill, and Ben Lomond Hotel for hosting us and providing a comfortable atmosphere. As I sit in my office writing this message I take a moment to look out my office window only to have the western flank of the Wasatch Mountains distract my train-of-thought once again. The first thing that crosses my mind is how they maintain their ability to distract the eye and stimulate awe, despite the urban sprawl and unsightly growth surrounding the range. There’s a noticeable difference this year that I’m sure most of you are aware of by now. There is significantly less snowpack compared to the last few winters. We all know by now that the state of Utah is experiencing one of our poorest snow-years in awhile. The last few weeks have shown signs of hope, but we sill have a ways to go to get to normal. As professionals in the field of natural resources, we can’t help but wonder what effect highly variable snow-packs will ultimately have on our state’s environmental conditions.

  • Utah Scenic Byways Guide

    Utah Scenic Byways Guide

    Utah is the place where prehistory intersects with the enduring spirit of the Old West. Wild, adventure-rich places cradle vibrant urban centers. With interstates and airplanes, the world can feel pretty small. On Utah’s designated scenic byways, the world feels grand; its horizons seem infinite. As you drive through Utah, you’ll inevitably encounter many of the state’s scenic byways. In total, Utah’s distinct topography provides the surface for 27 scenic byways, which add up to hundreds of miles of vivid travel experiences wherein the road trip is as memorable as the destination. Utah’s All-American Road: Scenic Byway 12 headlines the network of top roads thanks to landscapes and heritage unlike anywhere else in the nation. All of Utah’s scenic byways are explorative journeys filled with trailheads, scenic overlooks, museums, local flavors and vibrant communities where you can stop for the night or hook up your RV. Not sure where to start? In the following pages, you’ll discover monumental upheavals of exposed rock strata among multiple national and state parks along the All-American Road (pg. 4); dense concentrations of fossils along Dinosaur Diamond (pg. 8); and the blazing red cliffs and deep blue waters of Flaming Gorge–Uintas (pg. 12) — and that’s just in the first three highlighted byways. Your journey continues down two dozen additional byways, arranged north to south. Best of all, these byways access an outdoor adventureland you can hike, fish, bike, raft, climb and explore from sunup to sundown — then stay up to welcome the return of the Milky Way.

    (Big Enough to Hold 1300 Earths) Is Currently at a Point Called Opposition Which M

    See Jupiter this Summer Giant planet Jupiter (big enough to hold 1,300 Earths) is currently at a point called opposition which means it's directly opposite the Sun in Earth's skies. That also makes it very bright and easy to see with nothing more than the naked eye (though a telescope makes the view even better). Because it is at opposition Jupiter rises over the mountains to the southeast just as it's getting good and dark (currently around 10 pm), is high in the southern sky around midnight and does not set in the southwest until after 5 am. Look for the nearly full Moon to pass fairly close to Jupiter next Wednesday night (the 16th). Jupiter will remain nearly as bright and still very easy to see throughout the summer, rising and setting a few minutes earlier each day. Carpe Noctem! From Friday, July 11 at 5:00 P.M.

  • Creation Vacation: Utah

    Creation Vacation: Utah

    Creation Vacation: Utah The best time of year to visit this part of Utah is before Memorial Day or after late September; otherwise it is hot (90-105 F.) and crowded! To understand Utah’s geology please watch the DVD Grand Canyon: the Puzzle on the Plateau (by Mike Snavely Mission Imperative) which is based on Walter Brown’s book, In the Beginning, the section on the Grand Canyon. This book is fully viewable on line at http://www.creationscience.com/onlinebook/GrandCanyon.html After the Genesis Flood, the Colorado Plateau rose more than a mile high. During the one and only Ice Age, the basin of this plateau was filled with a lake, Grand Lake (sometimes also called Canyonlands Lake) and Hopi Lake. The Ice Age lasted for some 700 years. In this area of the world there would have been plenty of rain, not snow/ice; it would have been a well-watered place. These two lakes would have grown in size, covering parts of four states. Then they breached. This would have flooded the Northern part of Arizona carving out the Grand Canyon. Three legends of Native American tribes living near the Northern Arizona speak of the Grand Canyon’s formation after a local, single, catastrophic flood. The Navajo speak of an earthquake and a loud roaring sound, scouts were sent out, and they found a large hole, a very large hole. That hole today is called the Grand Canyon. How did these people groups get to Grand Canyon area after the Genesis Flood? These were people who had left the tower of Babel about 100 years after the Genesis Flood and traveled till they settled in the Grand Canyon area.
