It only took one try for Cody Jones to pop the balloon attached to a red ribbon at the new archery range at Antelope Island State Park on Wednesday morning. The professional archer from Roy, representing Wilde Arrow Archery at the event, has been shooting since he was 4 years old, so it only ...
With the record snowpack this year and reports of deep snow at the top of Farmington Canyon, I wanted to see for myself what the trail conditions were on this second Saturday in July. I found four friends willing to join me. This was an exploratory ride, but as we climbed the trail up ...
I have a trailer, and I love a good trailer. The world has known the value of trailers for as long as we have had something with which to pull them. In the early days, it was a variety of animals. During pioneer days, even people pulled handcart wagons. When I bought my first ATV in 1993, I ...

Earlier this year, Nick Faulkner of Young Powersports asked me to come up with five trails in the upper half of the state that he could offer as a way to help people know where to ride. I gave him a list of five trails that included detailed instructions to the staging areas, the trails and ...
FARMINGTON — Work is now underway to build a multipurpose sports park that Davis County officials say will add tourism dollars to its communities and boost the county's self-touted claim as Utah's "amusement capital." Government officials turned over dirt with golden shovels Tuesday near ...

The Poverty Flats Trail was one of the ride choices offered at the 2023 Red Rock ATV/UTV Jamboree in Kanab. I was fortunate to be able to land a spot on this ride with Dale Grange as our guide. He is a member of the Tri-State OHV Club and he is very familiar with Southern Utah trails. This ...
