elcome to you, from the Hurricane Valley Chamber of Commerce! What an amazing yet crazy year 2020 turned out to be. Why was 2020 amazing, you ask? Because it gave our businesses the opportunity to adapt, refine, and better serve our locals, visitors, and Pres. Nic Lauritzen future residents like you. With convenient curbside pickup, online ordering, and delivery, you will come to enjoy, as we do, the amazing variety our restaurants offer in the area. From locals making massive cinnamon rolls, or sugar cookies and soda pop named after a Friends character, to cheeseburgers too big to finish, pot roast and mashed potatoes just like your grandma would make, or BBQ ribs and brisket that will make you want to move here, we have it all. Or you can go from casual dining to formal dining with Prime Rib, tomahawk steaks, and much more. What better place to escape “the crazy” than Hurricane, Utah? Here in Hurricane and surrounding areas, we have hundreds of mountain bike trails, hiking trails, horseback riding, ATV trails, lakes for fishing, boating, swimming, golf, helicopter

rides, personalized tours, sporting gun ranges and so much more. You also may have heard of this little national park called Zion? As you enjoy all our amazing outdoor activities, you will be equally amazed at what our local businesses have to offer. From our local theater productions and concerts in the park to VIP seating at your favorite movie theater, or the wildly popular and unfiltered Ramona at Rattlin’D Playhouse, you will be entertained. As President of the H.V. Chamber, I applaud our local businesses for their amazing ability to adapt, serve, and show remarkable grit during these challenging times. Our pathways and trails are open, and our businesses are here and ready to welcome you. Thank you for visiting and please, plan to come back again soon. You will be glad you did!

urricane Valley consists of several towns and cities, including Hurricane, La Verkin, Toquerville and Leeds. Each city has its own unique small-town charm. Hurricane Valley is beautifully situated at roughly 3,000 feet above sea level, between the Colorado Plateau to the East and the Great Basin to the West. The landscape is breathtaking and the geologic history reveals itself to you as you drive, hike or pedal your way through the area. Southern Utah is truly a recreational playground with beauty around every corner, and Hurricane Valley is at the hub. If you draw a 150-mile radius circle around the City of Hurricane, you quickly realize that it would take weeks to visit all of the major attractions in/near Hurricane Valley. Within Hurricane Valley itself, water sports can be enjoyed at Sand Hollow Reservoir, Quail Creek Reservoir, and along the Virgin River. Likewise, there are multiple acclaimed golf courses, with a dozen or so other courses just a short drive away. Additionally, there are dozens of world-class jeep, biking and ATV trails in Hurricane Valley that draw people from around the globe. Sand Mountain Sand Dunes and local slickrock make Hurricane Valley perfect for all types of offroading. Gooseberry Mesa is a mountain biker’s dream that is literally minutes East of Hurricane. Just a short distance outside of Hurricane Valley, visitors and locals can enjoy a concert or play at the Tuacahn or Cedar City’s Shakespeare Festival, bucket-list hikes at Zion National Park and Snow Canyon State Park, skiing/ snowboarding at Brian Head, or ATV rides at Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park. Within a couple hours’ drive, several national parks can be enjoyed including Zion, Bryce Canyon,
HVCG_book2020.indd 6
Glen Canyon (Lake Powell), Cedar Breaks, Grand Escalante, and the North Rim of the Grand Canyon.
Hurricane Valley boasts excellent weather year-round. From September to May, temperatures are moderate and mild, prompting snowbirds to flock to the area. While temperatures sometimes can get up there (100°F+) in the summer months, the local lakes, pools, shaded parks, splash pad, and nearby hiking/biking options (at higher elevations) make summer life fun in the sun. Each year, more and more major events are hosted in Hurricane Valley. In addition to sports tournaments and conventions that are common in many cities, Hurricane Valley is the gathering place for bike and offroad competitions, trail rides, marathons, triathlons, golf tournaments, shooting competitions, 4H and rodeo events, Washington County Fair (with its demolition derby), Easter Car Show, Peach Days, Founders Day, WinterFest, and dozens of other notable events. With its amazing weather, scenery, recreation options and calendar of events, it is no surprise that Hurricane was recently rated “America’s #1 Up and Coming Vacation Destination.” As you discover Hurricane Valley and all that it has to offer, we are confident that you will come to love it as we do. And, perhaps, as is the case with many visitors, you will love it so much that you decide to move here or open a business in the region.

HISTORY OF HURRICANE SAM

H
urricane Valley has a rich history which includes an abandoned “airport” that was used for “flight experiments”. High above the city of Hurricane there is a mesa that rises over 1,500 feet. It can be seen on the left side of the road, as you are leaving Hurricane and LaVerkin traveling up State Route 9 toward the freeway. Many years ago, following WW2, with the invention of jet propulsion, there was a need for more effective escape systems capable of ejecting a pilot from an aircraft in as safe a way as possible. In 1953 the Air Force awarded a $2 million contract to Coleman Engineering Company from Torrance, CA, who in turn constructed the Supersonic Military Air Research Track in Hurricane to test ejection seat systems. The track consisted of 12,000 feet of continuously welded, heavy-duty rails and was the longest research track in its’ time. The first test run was in July of 1955. The rocket propelled sled could reach speeds of 1050 miles per hour (Mach 1.3) or faster! There is one report where the sled weighing 9,000 pounds reached 1800 miles per hour!!! The site located on the mesa included communication towers, camera towers, a shop building, an administration building, and security facilities.
HVCG_book2020.indd 10
Tests began with “Hurricane Sam.” Sam was a dummy strapped into a sled seat that was then sent hurling down the track and over the edge of the mesa. Sam was in for a ride! He shot into the air where his parachute opened, and he floated to the ground. This dummy was an anthropoid simulator wired to test the effects that being ejected from a speeding sled would have on the human body. Sadly, for a short time chimpanzee were also used to determine the impact that speed and ejection would have on the human body. And so, the site took on the name “Flying Monkeys”. Testing by the Air Force at the site ended December of 1961-completing 334 tests that helped develop an effective, safe ejection system for pilots. The results of this testing is responsible for saving many future pilots’ lives!!

he future of Hurricane Valley is exciting to contemplate. We have seen tremendous population and economic growth over the past several years, which will undoubtedly continue, as visitors, young families and retirees discover what this jewel of an area has to offer. With its two lakes, sand dunes, low crime rate, small-town values, spectacular scenery, excellent weather, nearby airports, proximity to Zion and other bucket list destinations, full array of services, world-class trails and golf courses, and its myriad of events and recreational opportunities, those who discover Hurricane Valley often choose to stay. Hurricane Valley consists of four main population hubs, Hurricane, LaVerkin, Toquerville and Leeds, with a total population over 25,000, and each is growing at a terrific rate. At current rates, and given the 31.5 square miles within Hurricane City limits, it is predicted that Hurricane Valley will double in size within the next 10-15 years. As civic leaders strive to keep up with growth in the region, they are determined to preserve and promote the wholesome, family friendly values that have been the hallmark of this region for generations. Hurricane is the biggest population center (~19,000+) in Hurricane Valley and, in recent years, its population has been growing by more than a thousand each year. Dixie Springs and Copper Rock are two of several major housing developments in the region. Presently, there are approximately 3,500 new homes slated for construction within Hurricane. Several commercial projects are also underway (or recently completed) including a new gas station, fitness club, new restaurants and hotels, and multiple office and commercial complexes. We have a growing economy in Hurricane Valley with manufacturing, industrial, tourism, and large-scale distribution centers – to name a few – that provide great jobs for our expanding workforce.
HVCG_book2020.indd 12
Over the next few years, we will see improvements to our road system, including the extension of SR-7 which will better connect Hurricane with the St. George airport. This will help ease the burden on the millions of people that visit our beautiful area each year.

LOOKING OUT FOR
ONE ANOTHER
T
he topic of mental health can seem taboo at times. However, it is a vitally important topic to discuss especially when it affects the ones we love. Depression, Anxiety, and other mental health disorders can be highly isolating for the individual and detrimental if left unaddressed. Luckily, there are always ways to improve your mental state and do it naturally. In this article I’d like to talk about a few ways to improve mental health naturally as well as tips for talking with people about their mental health and helping people know when they should seek help. #1 Be THERE As stated earlier, mental Photo courtesy of Nic Lauritzen health disorders are highly isolating, you may notice the ones you love starting to withdraw from you, their friends, and their family. They may stop participating in things that they love and become overall more reserved. Rather than letting them withdraw, try to be there with them as much as possible. Saying things like, “Let me know if you need anything,” or, “Are you doing okay?” won’t help, they won’t want to burden you with their issues and they won’t easily divulge what is bothering them. They need someone to be there, someone who will break through the barriers they are putting up. #2 Ask the HARD questions No one wants to ask their son, daughter, brother, sister, or friend if they are having suicidal thoughts. It’s hard to ask! But, asking can be the turning point for them and it could save their life. There are a few things that can help. Approach them with love and understanding, be calm, let them know you care and that they can tell you anything and you will not judge them or lose your cool. It can be hard to remain calm and collected, especially if you are worried or shocked, but they need you to be stable because they are feeling very unstable. You need to ask
HVCG_book2020.indd 13
these questions: Have you had suicidal thoughts? Do you have a plan to commit suicide? If they answer yes to either of these questions, calmly express your love for them and tell them that you are going to work through it together, then immediately seek professional help. #3 Get them OUT of their heads. If a loved one is struggling with depression or anxiety, they can get trapped in negative thought spirals. When this happens it is important to get them out of their head. Do activities to bring them back to the present. This can be done by spending quality time with them, having a good conversation and engaging in fun activities. They may resist at first,
but persistence is key. #4 Get them OUTSIDE We live in one of the most glorious and breathtaking places on planet earth. Being outdoors, hiking, biking, walking, swimming, taking in the grandeur of the stunning scenery which surrounds us. These are amazingly effective ways to reduce stress naturally and they are particularly good for mental health. Spending time outside whether exercising or participating in recreational activities increases overall mental health and general well-being. Along with extra vitamin D, you will also have increased oxygen levels and when participating in exciting activities dopamine and endorphin levels will also increase. We live in a perfect place to utilize this amazing method of restorative treatment…getting outside. All in all, it’s important to take care of yourself and also look out for the ones you love. Knowing the signs and asking the hard questions are just the beginning, but it could save someone’s life. Written by Elisabeth York Ascend Counseling and Wellness

urricane Valley is an off-road paradise for families, as well as the seasoned professionals looking to get off the beaten path. With miles upon miles of trail systems within Hurricane and the surrounding areas- you could spend weeks exploring and never see the same trail twice. Whether it’s ATV’s, UTV’s, Dirt bikes, Jeeps, Rock buggies, or the family minivan, there’s a trail for you to explore. Trails range from rocky and seemingly impossible to pass, to a perfect Sunday drive down a back road to see historic dinosaur tracks and native American petroglyphs. Home of the breathtaking Sand Mountain Sand dunes flowing down to the picturesque reservoir of Sand Hollow State park you will not be disappointed with any trail you take. There are special regulations in place for riding within the Sand Mountain sand dunes such as flags, helmets, and valid registration, so be sure to check local laws to ensure you are riding legally. If you’re nervous about not knowing where you can explore or how exactly to navigate a technical track, there are plenty of off-road tour companies around to give you the guidance you need to make it a safe adventure for you and your family. Most of these companies rent machines as well, allowing you to leave your vehicle at home and ride their equipment. Southern Utah Adventure Center, Mad Moose Rentals, and Ride Sand Hollow are a few of the companies available to you. An off-road adventure in Utah’s color country will be one to remember for years to come.

HIKING AND BIKING
urricane and its surrounding area draw tens of thousands each year for non-motorized off-road adventures. The area boasts numerous hiking and biking trails and biking events, and the slickrock trails at Gooseberry Mesa draw mountain biking enthusiasts from all over the world. Each year, more and more tourists (many from other countries) discover Zion National Park, with its spectacular trails and vistas.
Indeed, Zion National Park has become so popular that parking and traffic congestion during peak seasons can be problematic. For those who prefer a quainter hiking experience away from the crowds, there are numerous local hiking opportunities (some of which are detailed herein). With amazing weather year-round, outdoor recreation is a way of life in Hurricane Valley.
BIKING
Biking of all types is very popular in Hurricane Valley. The Red Bull Rampage, held each October, attracts elite freestyle, freeride and downhill riders who display their best tricks, gnarliest drops and toughest lines before a world-wide television audience. The slickrock at Gooseberry Mesa is also a huge draw and a fun challenge to biking enthusiasts, including beginners and technical riders. The Hurricane Cliffs trail system (JEM, Hurricane Rim, Dead Ringer, More Cowbell, etc.) can be accessed from Hurricane City. Other trails like Guacamole, Little Creek, Church Rocks and Quail Creek are just a short drive away. High elevation riding
HVCG_book2020.indd 16
can be found in nearby Brian Head, Bryce Canyon, and the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. Each year, Hurricane hosts the Hurricane Mountain Bike Festival (March) and the 25 hours of Frog Hollow mountain bike race (November). For more information about these events, see pp. 29-32. With beautiful scenery throughout Hurricane Valley, coupled with great weather and light to moderate traffic, road biking is great throughout the area.

NATIONAL PARK

outhern Utah’s Zion National Park is one of the premier national parks in the world, welcoming millions of visitors each year from all over the globe. Zion National Park’s canyons and mesas boast an exquisite beauty that draws more and more visitors each year. With 220 square miles of explorable land, there is something for everyone. Zion National Park features short, mid-range and 1-2 day hikes, including some hikes requiring rappelling and swimming. It also features biking trails, horseback riding, and numerous rappelling and canyoneering options. Zion National Park’s 2,000foot sandstone cliffs are world renowned for their large wall climbs (not recommended for inexperienced climbers). Bucket list hikes include Angel’s Landing, the “Narrows” and the “Subway”, among others. For a hike with breathtaking views and vistas, consider the West Rim Trail, which includes Angel’s Landing along the trail. Emerald Pools, Weeping Rock and the Riverside Walk (gateway to the Narrows) are some of the most popular shorter hikes. Another popular short hike, which involves a memorable drive through the famous Zion-Mt. Carmel tunnel, is the Zion Canyon Overlook Trail. Those hiking in slot-canyon areas need to exercise extreme caution to avoid flash floods, which are most common in the monsoon season (July to September). Ideal times to visit the park are in the Spring and Fall, when weather is moderate and crowds are smaller. While visiting Zion, Hurricane Valley, which is approximately half an hour outside of the park, is an excellent option for food and lodging.

EDUCATION
Photo By Ben P L - Hurricane High School
tudents are achieving and schools are excelling in Hurricane Valley. Washington County School District currently offers dual immersion language programs at Three Falls Elementary (Chinese) and at Hurricane Elementary (Spanish). Additionally, Hurricane Elementary is a Gold Level STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) designated school, and it hosts an after-school LEGO robotics club. Hurricane High provides a full offering of courses, as well as Jr ROTC and FFA. Valley Academy Charter School is also a great option for parents and students who prefer a charter school experience. Dixie State University has a Hurricane campus where high school students and graduates can take courses, receive certifications and pursue higher education goals. Several other excellent higher education options are available in St. George and Cedar City such as Stevens Henager College and others. Washington County School District is committed to the children and taxpayers in Hurricane Valley. For instance,
in recent years, $95 million has been spent on construction or renovation of Hurricane High, Hurricane Middle and Hurricane Elementary. Additionally, the school district recently completed boundary changes to accommodate new growth and to ease the pressure it is creating on our local elementary schools. The District currently owns land for a future elementary school in the growing Dixie Springs development, which will move forward when the time is right. Residents with questions about schools in Hurricane Valley should direct them to https://www.washk12.org/district/ contact-us. Our goal and vision is that every student has the best education possible and the best opportunity to succeed. We are grateful to our amazing teachers and administrators for making this happen. We are also very grateful for local parents who care about education and help their children succeed. Mostly, we are thankful for the students themselves. They truly are the future.

SILVER REEF MUSEUM LEEDS, UTAH
S tep Back in Time-Museum at Silver Reef Patricia Cundick Curator, The Museum at Silver Reef
A visit to the Museum at Silver Reef will take you back in time to the end of the 19th Century when a booming mining town of over 1,000 inhabitants suddenly appeared among the quiet farming communities of Southern Utah. Silver ore had been discovered in the sandstone which formed the spectacular ridges and cliffs of the area! Silver in sandstone was a phenomenon which had never been seen anywhere before. Once the skeptics became convinced, the rush was on. By 1880, Main Street was over a mile long with dozens of business supporting the operations of over 30 mines and 5 processing mills. Miners, shop keepers, farmers from near-by towns, Catholic nuns, school children, mill owners and Chinese laborers rubbed shoulders on the busy streets. Wooden buildings sprang up almost overnight and were soon joined by a good number of more permanent structures, made to last from the most abundantly available building material – sandstone blocks. Silver Reef began to look like a place that was built to stay. But a visit to Silver Reef today is a reminder of how quickly things can change. In the 1880s the price of silver began to drop, and miners began leaving for the next big strike. By 1890, the town was down to just a few inhabitants and was mainly deserted by the turn of the century. Visitors to the site of this once-booming town will find only
HVCG_book2020.indd 36
remnants of the past. The Wells Fargo Express Co. building has been carefully preserved and houses the Museum. Three other buildings have been reconstructed and the alarmingly small-town jail has been hauled back on site. Otherwise, visitors will find a few rock ruins, many stone foundations and a whole lot of spectacular views. Inside the Museum, exhibits detail the history of the town, tell the stories of its people and illustrate what life was like in a Western mining town 140 years ago. Children can try their hand at an “I Spy” game among the artifacts and adults can peruse exhibits that cover a range of topics from mine claims to medicine bottles, from bonnets to brachiopods. In the basement of the Museum, guests can tour a simulated mine and enjoy a short video about the town. Outside, well-marked trails and a self-guide will help visitors discover the scope and variety of the old town. Come to Silver Reef for a combination of history and scenery that is hard to duplicate. We are open year round Mon. Thurs. Friday and Saturday 105pm with the last tour starting at 4pm. Every 4th weekend we have “Living History” special events and they can be found on our website at https://www.SilverReefUtah.org Admission is $3. each/ $10. Family with 2-3 children under 18/ Groups of 10 or more are $2 each.

GEOLOGIC FEATURES
H
urricane occupies a unique position in the physiographic regions of the West. It sits at a geologic division line between the Colorado Plateau to the East and the Great Basin to the West. Many of the landforms you see as you travel along SR-9 through Hurricane are evidence of this fact. To the East you can see the horizontal formations of the Grand Canyon suite that form the classic mesas and canyons of the West, including Zion National Park. These formations have been uplifted by the Hurricane Fault which forms the steep cliffs just East of the downtown area. To the West is Pine Valley Mountain, a 10,365’ granite laccolith that pushed its way through the overlying formations. Pine Valley Mountain represents the eastern edge of the Great Basin and Range province in this area. Pine Valley Mountain is part of the Dixie National Forest. As you drive past the Washington County Fairgrounds you’ll be in the middle of the angled formations that form the Virgin Anticline. It forms the basin where the Quail Creek State Park and reservoir are situated. Then there are the extinct volcanic cinder cones that were formed continuously from about one million to 140,000 years ago. The age and composition of the cinder cones suggest that they are related to the same volcanic activity associated with the formation of San Francisco Peak near Flagstaff, Arizona. See the Utah Geology’s I-15/SR-9 Geological Road guide for more details. To read more about Utah Geology, visit the Utah Geological Survey, Utah Geological Society, and Utah Geology web sites.

PET ETIQUETTE
We would like to welcome you to beautiful Southern Utah. Many people visit our area each year and come with their pets in tow. Here are some helpful hints to make everyone’s visit the best it can be.
1. CLEAN UP AFTER YOUR PET - Prepare before you leave to walk your pet with ample poop bags. It is important to leave the area in pristine condition, so you can enjoy visits for years to come. 2. TEACH A PROPER GREETING - Pets jumping on an unsuspecting person or another pet can cause interesting reactions; many of which may not be deemed PAWSITIVE. Stepping on the middle of the leash helps train the pet not to jump and gives you control of your pet. 3. SOCIAL DISTANCING OR NOT - Some pets, like people prefer to be by themselves. If your pet is the social type, choose opportunities like dog parks for play dates. If not, you may want to consider other ‘single’ activities like a hike with his best friend (you.) 4. TO LEASH OR NOT TO LEASH - THAT IS THE QUESTION. Different areas have different leash laws. To err on the side of safety is probably best. Pets like consistency and you are in control.
HVCG_book2020.indd 40
Re Op
5. REQUEST TO APPROACH - Just like the “Law and Order” series, it is best to request to approach (the bench) or another pet owner and pet. Let them be the judge of whether you may be permitted or not and please respect their wishes. 6. BARKING AND BULLYING - Friendly “Hellos” are fine. Extended barking or harassment is not. Pet fighting, nipping, and pouncing can lead to injuries and take the fun away. 7. PROACTIVE DISPUTE SETTLING - If you see a dispute brewing, intervene, and separate the pets. This will ensure the safety and health of both animals. Always use caution! 8. SERVICE ANIMALS - Service animals are a different breed. They are trained to serve the individual in need. It is best not to approach them or disturb them. Talk directly to the handler and do not try to feed or pet them. Don’t be offended if the owner says ‘no’ to your requests. We hope you have an awesome visit and return to see us again soon!

SEARCH AND RESCUE WASHINGTON COUNTY
W
OF
ashington County Search and Rescue consists of a team of highly trained and motivated volunteers. These men and women bring a special skill set, expertise, and equipment, while sharing their personal time to assist the Sheriff’s office in providing exceptional Search and Rescue services. The team consists of over 75 volunteers from all walks of life. WCSAR was founded to serve the residents of Washington County, UT. The members include individuals with training in organized technical search and rescue techniques and serve as a specialized resource for non-urban search and rescue missions. Search and Rescue (SAR) is the search for and provision of aid to people who are in distress or imminent danger. The general field of search and rescue includes many specialty sub-fields, mostly based upon terrain considerations. These include mountain, ground, (including the use of search and rescue dogs,) urban in cities, and combat on the battlefield and air-sea rescue over water.
HVCG_book2020.indd 49
Sgt. Darrell Cashin, liaison of the County’s SAR, said the most recent record was set in 2018 with 132 calls. 2020 calls are anticipated to be close to 175 rescues! Cashin stated that nearly 60% of calls involved visitors to the area. We are also seeing a great increase of visitors from California and Nevada-most likely due to people getting outdoors due to the lockdown from the Covid-19 virus. The most frequent call is from hikers suffering heat related issues including dehydration. Cashin stated that hydrating with electrolytes is especially important in our desert environment and recommends starting hydration the day before the hike.
