Provo River Delta Groundbreaking June 11, 2020
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE DATE: June 11, 2020 MEDIA CONTACT: Cindy Gubler at 801-971-5639 or [email protected] A decade in the making: Officials break ground on nearly 260-acre Provo River Delta project to help recover the endangered June sucker PROVO — After more than a decade of planning and coordination, Chris Keleher, Director of Species Recovery at the Utah Department of Natural Resources, climbed aboard an excavator to perform a literal groundbreaking, while other project partners joined him to usher in the construction of the nearly 260-acre Provo River Delta project. The project will restore the interface between the Lower Provo River and Utah Lake as another step in the effort to recover the endangered June sucker. The project, which is located a half mile north of Utah Lake State Park, will take about five years to complete. Crews will start by excavating a system of braided waterways and wetlands into which the last mile and a half of the Lower Provo River will be diverted. This constructed system will provide the environs for Utah Lake and Provo River flows to meet and mingle. In 2022, the northern half of Skipper Bay dike, which was initially constructed in the 1940s to disconnect land east of it from Utah Lake, will be lowered and most of the Lower Provo River’s flow will be diverted north of its current location into a new channel. The Provo River and Utah Lake will once again be interconnected through a delta, providing essential habitat for the survival of the June sucker. -
Solitude Mountain Resort
Bob Bob Cameron by Photo Solitude Mountain Resort The magical quality of Utah’s snow country has attracted many dedicated snow enthusiasts. Bob Barrett, having made his money as a hard-rock uranium miner in Moab, in a quest to pursue his passion for skiing, saw the potential for this exceptional geographic location, began the initial acquisition of land, and opened Solitude in 1957 with two lifts. The name Solitude was given to this area in the 1800’s by miners experiencing the peaceful lack of winds. The DeSeelhorst family, owners of the Resort, became involved in the late 1970’s. They brought needed planning, vision and financing to make the most of this gem, creating a sensitive, intimate and small European-style alpine four-season resort village to complement the incredibly beautiful mountains in Big Cottonwood Canyon. The Creekside condominiums and Inn at Solitude were built in 1996. The Village was completed in 2001. Solitude grew steadily into a world-class four season destination resort. It was purchased by Deer Valley in 2015, then by Alterra in 2018. The winter snow average is 500 inches of fresh powder, and the highest elevation is 10,035 ft. at the Summit lift. Services include 6 restaurants, 8 lifts, a Nordic Center, retail shops, equipment rental and repair shops, condominium rental management services, grocery store, private clubs, Club Solitude recreation center, two large day lodges and event center, and a variety of four-star overnight accommodations. Solitude is also open for summer dining and special events. The Sunrise lift offers summer rides for hiking, mountain scooters, biking, and disc golf. -
Social Impacts of Expanded Ski Resort Operations on Forest Service Lands
SOCIAL IMPACTS OF EXPANDED SKI RESORT OPERATIONS ON FOREST SERVICE LANDS Prepared by: Jordan W. Smith, Ph.D. & Urian Guadarrama Institute of Outdoor Recreation and Tourism Utah State University, Logan, UT 84322-5215 Contact: [email protected] Prepared for: Valley Advocates for Responsible Development Driggs, ID 83422 Contact: Shawn Hill, Executive Director, [email protected] Introduction The Grand Targhee Resort has submitted an application to the USDA Forest Service to expand the operations of the resort in an effort to “improve the recreational experience and address shortcomings in their terrain offerings and operations in order to remain viable in the competitive destination skier/rider market.” Expanded resort operations would involve: (1) expanding the operational boundary of the special use permit under which the Resort operates; (2) adding, replacing, and realigning ski lifts; (3) building new infrastructure (roads, restaurants, cabins, etc.); and (4) constructing new trails to support summer recreational activities. Local stakeholders are concerned the expanded ski resort operations will lead to significant and possibly irreversible impacts to their social and economic characteristics of the nearby communities. The Forest Service is now soliciting comments on the proposed actions in an effort to identify possible and likely impacts that need to be considered in subsequent environmental analyses. The purpose of this document is to catalog and describe how the USDA Forest Service has assessed the socioeconomic impacts associated with expanded ski resort operations on Forest Service lands in the past. Methods We systematically searched online databases and search engines to develop a comprehensive list of known cases where a private ski resort operator has expanded the operations of their resort. -
