Northern Utah was in many ways a Crossroads long before the emigrants, settlers, railroad and military came here. As early as pre-Fremont Native Americans, we find evidence of trails and trade routes across this geographic area. The trappers and traders, both English and American, knew the area and crisscrossed it following many of the Native American trails. They also established new routes. Explorers sought additional routes to avoid natural barriers such as the mountains and the Great Salt Lake. As emigrants and settlers traveled west, knowledge of the area spread. The Crossroads designation was permanently established once the Railroad spanned the nation.

  • Stop Consumers from Getting Buffaloed by Mislabeled Meat Bison Day Celebrates Cultural, Ecological An
    Weekly Update from the National Bison Association A news and update service exclusively for members of the National Bison Association. (All items copyright, and not to be reprinted without explicit written permission of the NBA) November 2, 2018 Senators: Stop Consumers from Getting Buffaloed by Mislabeled Meat A bipartisan group of five U.S. Senators today pushed federal regulators to immediately halt the sale of imported water buffalo meat products labeled in a manner that leads consumers to believe they are buying North American bison. Republican Senators John Hoeven (ND) and John Thune (SD), along with Democratic Senators Michael Bennet (CO), Heidi Heitkamp (ND) and Tom Udall (NM) sent a letter to FDA Deputy Commissioner Stephen Ostroff and USDA Acting Under Secretary Carmen Rottenberg urging prompt action to respond to the National Bison Association’s complaint regarding imported water buffalo meat being labeled only with descriptions such as “Natural Ground Buffalo.” “Bison ranchers and marketers have worked diligently for more than two decades to build a strong market for bison meat. Their success was built on developing a relationship with the public based upon the great taste and high quality of bison meat,” the senators wrote. “Because the term buffalo is widely used to describe bison, the failure to label water buffalo transparently and accurately could be misleading to the American consumer.” The National Bison Association in September filed a formal complaint with the FDA and USDA regarding water buffalo being marketed in a manner to deceive customers into believing they were buying bison meat. The complaint was prompted by a surge of products in the human food and pet products categories containing water buffalo meat that were only labeled as “buffalo.” Dave Carter, executive director of the National Bison Association, noted, “Americans consider the term buffalo to describe bison.

  • Investigation of Antelope Island
    Forward The word “investigation” is defined as “a searching inquiry for ascertaining facts; detailed or careful examination.” The key word here is “facts”. Do ghosts exist? No, it has not been proven. Therefore are no facts to investigate. What we do have is the testimony of the witnesses and this is where an investigational process will work. Investigations are often viewed as a skeptical activity because the main goal is trying to determine what the witness actually saw. Is it explainable or not? This is done through critical thinking and an event replication process developed by SGHA. This is an important concept because what defines a haunting or ghost sighting is “Multiple witnesses reporting unusual phenomena over a period of time”. If these phenomena can be explained, the witness reports are no longer validating paranormal activity as a cause and thus there is no ghost or haunting. Additionally historical research may be done in an attempt to validate facts. It is important to understand that the goal of an investigation is not to find evidence of the paranormal but to attempt to identify any natural or manmade causes of the reported phenomena Definition of Terms Investigation Status: Unsolved investigations will have either an open or closed status. An investigation is given an “Open” status if: The investigators were unable to replicate all of the witness events. Something significant remains that is still unsolved. It is important to understand that an “open” investigation does not mean that the unsolved facts are paranormal in nature. It simply means that we have exhausted our resources and cannot solve the “open” items/events.

  • 2008 Elk/Deer Hunt Campground/Road Update Salt
    2008 ELK/DEER HUNT CAMPGROUND/ROAD UPDATE SALT LAKE CITY, October 1, 2008 - Beginning this weekend, many hunters will be in the great outdoors for the 2008 general elk hunt, followed by the general deer hunt starting October 18th. The Forest Service would like to remind hunters and other forest users who use off-highway vehicles such as four-wheelers, dirt bikes etc. to “Tread Lightly”: Travel only where motorized vehicles are permitted, stay on designated routes, under no circumstances are motorized vehicles ever allowed off-designated roads and trails not even to retrieve game; avoid streams, lakeshores, meadows, muddy roads, trails and steep hillsides. It is the responsibility of all hunters and other forest users to obtain travel maps that show roads and trails that are designated open to off highway vehicles If you are planning to use livestock on National Forest lands, remember that you are permitted to use only certified weed free straw, hay or pellets to help prevent the spread of Noxious Weeds. Hunters and forest users who are heading to the woods should always take extra water, food and extra clothing (rain gear-cold weather gear) in case the weather turns bad. You should always carry waterproof matches, first-aid-kit, flashlight, map, compass, whistle, and a cell phone. Always let someone know where you are going and approximately what time you will return, always wear your hunters orange and never hunt alone. Learn to recognize potentially dangerous situations and know when to turn around. Always carry in your vehicle a tow strap, proper tire chains and a shovel.

  • Utah's Hotspots for Birds in Early Spring
    Utah’s Hotspots for Birds in Early Spring By Ian Butterman, Fieldtrip Coordinator The transition between winter and spring tends to be an interesting time for birds. Many of the winter migrants start heading north, yet the mid-to-late spring migrants haven’t shown up in full force. Fortunately, there are still birds to be found in Utah during these months. Early spring is a great time to see waterfowl, especially ducks in their breeding plumage. As waterways begin to thaw, we may see some early migrating shorebirds come through. Some songbird species also migrate early including flycatchers, gnatcatchers, and blackbirds. Occasionally, some winter migrants and vagrants may linger as well to surprise birders. Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge Where: East of Brigham City off of I-15 exit 363. Both the Bird Refuge Road leading up to the refuge and the Auto Tour loop are great areas for hundreds of bird species. It is certainly one of the greatest hotspots in the state. What: Snow Geese, Tundra Swans, ducks, grebes, gulls, Bald Eagle, Red-tail Hawk, American Kestrel, shrikes, Short-eared Owls, sparrows, Marsh Wren, blackbirds, pelicans, cormorants. Yellow Fork Canyon Where: In Herriman off of Rosecrest Road. There are a few different hiking trails off of the main trail which might be a bit quieter as this is a great place for horseback riding and biking. What: Common Raven, Cooper’s Hawk, Juniper Titmouse, finches, woodpeckers, Wild Turkey, sparrows. Antelope Island Where: Antelope Island State Park, off Antelope Island Drive in Syracuse, UT (I-15 exit 332).

  • Antelope Island History
    Antelope Island Antelope Island, on the south end of Great Salt Lake, is the largest island in the lake. It is a 28,240 acre refuge for huge amounts of wildlife. The island is approximately 15 miles long and 5 miles wide. The size of the island depends on the level of the lake; at low levels, the island becomes a peninsula. The island is primarily a grassland community, with several species of grass. The island consists of several flat slope areas (39%), with 34% medium slopes, and 27% of the island is steep slopes. The lake is outlined with beautiful white sand beaches and wetlands. Frary Peak, the highest point on the island, is 6,596 feet above sea level. That is over 2,000 feet above the lake level. Over forty major fresh water springs and numerous smaller springs are found on the island. Antelope Island History Human history on Antelope Island began with Native American use. Several prehistoric camps have been identified, but information regarding the extent of Native American use is sketchy at best. In October of 1843, John C. Fremont and Kit Carson made the first known journey by Anglos to Antelope Island, where they observed several antelope, thus giving the island its name. From Fremont’s journal: “We found water and several bands of antelope. Some of these were killed and in grateful supply of food the antelope furnished I gave the name of the island.” Daddy Stump was the first Anglo resident of Antelope Island. He was an “old mountaineer and bear hunter.” His full name and background have eluded historians.
