U.S. FOREST SERVICE PHOTOS

Manti-La Sal National Forest recreation crews found several bags of trash left behind at Joes Valley campground. Had the crew not found the trash, animals would have gotten into it and left an even bigger mess behind.

Visitors are reminded to remove all trash when they are done camping.

US Forest Service encourages visitors to ‘Pack it in, Pack it out’ PRICE — Officials with the Manti-La Sal National Forest are noticing an increase of visitors to the forest, and with that, a lack of respect for forest etiquette.

“We are already seeing a number of trash bags and litter left behind from campers,” said Darren Olsen, acting Forest Supervisor. “Please take all your garbage back home with you. The Forest does not have dumpsters or trash collectors at most campgrounds or recreating areas, so please practice ‘Pack it in, Pack it Out’.”

“Pack it in, Pack it out” is a simple yet effective way to remind visitors to take their trash home with them. If it is brought onto the forest, it should leave the Forest. Visitors are reminded that burning trash is not an acceptable form of removal.

Olsen also said that moun-

tain roads should be driven with caution, especially with current road conditions varying between clear, muddy and snow covered.

“Don’t speed” he said. “Speeds should be much slower on mountain roads due to numerous blind corners, vehicles hauling campers and trailers, and people looking off at the views, etc. Slow down and enjoy the drive through the mountains.”

Recreation staff want to encourage visitors to have a great visit to the Manti-La Sal, but ask you keep these key rules in mind: Visitors must move their campsite at least 10 miles after 14 days and must stay the first night they establish a campsite.

Campsites and equipment may not be left unattended for more than 72 hours. Officials will leave notices on unattended equipment explaining this rule, and documenting when the notice was left to keep track of how long equipment sits unattended.

Do not leave fires unattended.

As Smokey Bear says, if it’s too

Fountain Green Elementary History Fair was held May 6, 2021. 5th and 6th grade students. Theme was ”Communication”.

Officials with Manti-La Sal National Forest are noticing as the weather gets warmer, and people start visiting the forest, trash is continuously being left behind. “Pack it in, Pack it out” is a simple yet effective way to remind visitors to take their trash home with them. If it is brought onto the Forest, it should leave the forest. hot to touch, it’s too hot to leave the fire alone. Soak the coals with water, stir and repeat until the fire and coals are fully extinguished.

Please do not feed wildlife. This can create a dangerous situation for both visitors and animals.

Cutting and hauling firewood off the Forest requires a permit, and the permit stipulates people can only drive 150 feet off the road to collect firewood.

The forest offers a variety of fun, family-friendly activities, but only when everyone is respectful of the rules in place.

These rules help protect the public lands, while ensuring a safe visit for all.

Spring City sponsoring cornhole DWR marks 20 years of community fishing ponds tournament

BY CONNOR RICHARDS

The Pyramid

Six-year-old Remy Lightfoot lifts off his navy blue cap and squints into the late-afternoon sunlight before casting his fishing rod into the quiet water of the pond at Wayne Bartholomew Park in Springville.

It’s Remy’s first time fishing, and he’s already caught a medium-sized fish with shiny scales that he can’t identify. He’s here on Wednesday afternoon with his 13-year-old brother, Julian, and his grandfather, Larry Orton.

Remy, a Salt Lake City resident who informs the Daily Herald that he is actually 6½, sees a fish circling around his fishing line. Remy gets excited and, before the fish gets a chance to bite, he rapidly reels in his line.

Not ready to give up just yet, the angler in training walks over to Grandpa and gets another piece of cheese to use as bait.

Remy’s first time fishing took place as the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources is celebrating 20 years of its community fishing pond program, which launched in 2001 with roughly a dozen public fishing ponds across the state.

Two decades later, there are now 57 DWR-operated ponds throughout Utah, including the pond in Springville, and “dozens of thriving fishing clubs and angler education programs in the communities,” the agency said in a press release on Tuesday.

Other community fishing ponds in Utah County include the Highland Glen Park Pond and Manila Creek Park Pond in north Utah County, Vivian Park Pond in Provo Canyon and Canyon View Park Pond, Salem Pond and Please see FISHING, Page A2

Spring City Recreation Department is sponsoring a Cornhole Tournament on Saturday, May 29. This will be fun for the whole family to enjoy.

There will be four different ages groups to compete in, 3-6, 7-12- 13-17 and 17+.

Cost for the day long event will be $10 per team and $15 per team after May 15.

Linda Madsen Cowart 1942-2021

Linda Madsen Cowart, age 79, beloved mother, grandmother, sister and friend, passed away peacefully at her home in her sleep on April 28, 2021. Her battle with heart issues in the last few years showed her courage in facing challenges with a smile.

Despite the pain, Linda remained resolute until the end.

Linda was born on April 17, 1942 in Mt. Pleasant, UT, to Royal Andrew Madsen and Zella Mower Madsen — their youngest daughter. She was raised in Mt. Pleasant, attended BYU for a while, and eventually settled down in West Valley City, UT. Linda had a long and

successful career in the mortgage business. She was a trailblazer in the industry for women, sitting on the local and national board of APMW, the Association

of Professional Mortgage Women.

Linda loved the Utah Jazz, had season tickets for many years and rarely missed a televised game. She also was an avid reader. In every city she lived, the first thing Linda did was get her library card.

Linda loved to travel, adventuring across the United States and Europe with family. One of her sayings was, “Might as well do it, because you never know when you’ll be back.”

Friends and family will always remember this in future travels and endeavors. Live your life with abandon and be grateful for every single day you have.

Linda is survived by her daughter Shelley C. Preece, son Kevin E. Cowart, grandson Cole L. Preece, her sister Marilyn M. Johnson, many nieces, nephews and extended family. She was preceded in death by her father Royal, mother Zella, and sister Charlotte Madsen Koski.

Graveside services will be held on Saturday, May 15, 2021 at 12 pm in the Mt. Pleasant City Cemetery followed by a 1pm Lunch at The Red Church, 49 S. State St, Mt. Pleasant, UT. Online condolences at Rasmussenmortuary.com.

Rest in Peace Linda Madsen Cowart. Your memory will be greatly cherished.

Fishing From A1

Spring Lake in south Utah County.

“Our community ponds are quite popular now,” DWR Northern Region Aquatics Manager Chris Penne said in the press release. “Last fall, we completed a survey at just six community fisheries in northern Utah, and in just two months, the ponds saw a combined 47,000 hours of fishing time. We are so glad that Utahns are using these ponds and enjoy fishing so close to home.”

DWR personnel stock the community ponds with locally raised rainbow trout on a biweekly basis in the fall and spring. Additionally, the ponds are stocked with channel catfish from Arkansas several times a year during the summer.

In addition to managing and stocking the ponds, DWR also oversees 34 community fishing clubs, which are open to youth aged 8 and older and are primarily run by volunteers.

Kristy Wolford, director of community and activities for Brigham City, one of the

first cities to get involved with the community fisheries program, said the community ponds “provide amazing fishing access and are such a benefit for our residents.”

“I see people using these ponds every single day,” Wolford said in the press release. “Recently, I was driving through town and drove past two 10-year-old boys walking with their fishing rods and tackle boxes toward the pond, and it just brought a smile to my face because, isn’t that

what it’s all about? To provide an opportunity for this next generation to enjoy Utah’s amazing outdoors.”

Remy was one of a handful of people fishing at Springville’s Wayne Bartholomew Park on Wednesday. Others utilized the public pond in other ways, including by paddle boarding across it or by laying out on its sandy shore.

Orton, a Nevada resident who grew up in Springville, said he liked the south Utah County community pond because it helps introduce kids to an activity that you “have to invest a lot of time and gear” into.

“So that’s the benefit of it, I think,” Orton said. “You’ve

got a facility where kids can fish. And it’s pretty relaxed and noncompetitive.”

Remy asks Orton to help him untangle his fishing line.

Orton does so, and then inquires if his grandson wants help casting the line. Remy replies that he wants to do it on his own.

Remy flicks his wrist and Orton smiles as the plastic bobber attached to the fishing line hits the water.

“Oh, good one!” Orton tells his grandson.

Gas Pains W

hen the month of May arrives and Mother’s Day passes, I begin to anticipate Memorial Day. It’s traditionally the unofficial start of the summer season. I also associate the holiday with the raising of gas prices. Right when we want to get out on the road think about vacations — Bang, up go gas prices.

When I was growing up, we had a family farm. At the farm, we had a buried 500-gallon gas tank which we used for fueling up the tractors, etc. It had a hand crank pump and we kept it locked up with a chain and padlock.

After losing most of a tank of fuel through what we figured was a leak, dad put in a tank at our house.

For the new tank, he got a service station style electric pump. When it was installed, the per gallon price on the pump, for some strange reason, was set at something like 43 cents per gallon. That was a very high, unrealistic price for the day.

I remember Dad saying that if we ever had to pay that much for gas that it would be a sorry day. That “sorry day” arrived a long time ago. It’s a good thing that Dad isn’t around to see the gas prices of today.

When the subject of gas prices came up, Dad used to like to tell about going to California as a young man with friends. They pulled into a service station and told the attendant they wanted a dollar’s worth of gas.

The guy asked, “Where are your cans?” Dad said, “What do you mean?” The attendant replied, “I can’t get a dollar’s worth of gas into that car. You’ll have to put the rest in cans.”

I sometimes reminisce about being a freshman at USU in Logan back in 1970. The gas price, as I recall, got as low as 23.9 cents per gallon that school year. Back then, they had “gas wars.”

Despite having access to a supply of fuel at home, I used to continually run out of gas as a teenager.

The car I drove at that time didn’t have a working fuel gauge. It was during that period that I learned the concept of siphoning gas.

It was a handy trick on the farm as well as out on the road. People would stop along the highway to help dumb kids like me.

Often, one or the other of us would have a hose in the vehicle to transfer a little fuel.

One memorable night, I ran out of gas on the road between Monroe and Richfield. An old farmer (probably much younger than my current age) gave me this sage advice as we siphoned gas from his truck to my old Ford, “You know son, it’s as easy to keep the upper half of the tank full as it is the lower half.” It’s never seemed “as easy” to me — even today.

I was reminded of these events a while back when I read an obituary of a guy from Utah County. Of

all the things to mention in an obituary, he was praised as someone who “had the knack of siphoning gas.” Maybe I should make some adjustments to my proposed obituary.

With the price of gas, the way it is now, I almost feel like it might be wise to keep my vehicle’s tank on the low side. I have a feeling that there may be a few people out and about who have “the knack of siphoning” who may feel that they need my gasoline more than I do. No one would actually do that in Sanpete, would they?

During the pandemic, Americans have been driving less. I don’t think that’s a surprise. Bicycling has increased.

I do think we are seeing more walking and bike riding in Sanpete now than we used to see. My wife has become an occasional Highway 89 cyclist when she has the time and the weather is decent.

I have only ridden with her once on that highway, outside of a town.

I feel like I’m increasing the odds of our grandchildren having at least one living grandparent on our side of the family by not being on a bicycle out on the highway. Sharing the road with diesel trucks, farm equipment, and speeding cars seems risky.

Eventually, we may see the need for a bike path running alongside Highway 89. As it is now, I believe that a bicyclist has to be very careful venturing out on that road on a bike.

My wife is pretty smart about it. You should be able to easily see her in her day-glow yellow or pink on the side of the road. So please move over and give her some space.

Motorcycles and scooters are popular right now from my observation. I sometimes ride our little Yamaha Vino scooter to buzz around town. Me riding that thing may be how my grandchildren lose their grandfather.

I think most of us will continue to pay for gasoline regardless of the price. But, we might get smarter about needless driving. I guess we have to remember that we’re still very lucky compared to many parts of the world when it comes to gas prices.

I checked and confirmed that most of the world pays more than our current prices. As of May 3, 2021, it looks like Hong Kong has the most expensive gasoline at $9.35 a gallon. Other per gallon prices: Norway: $7.77, United Kingdom: $6.67, Japan: $5.10, Saudi Arabia: $2.15, Kuwait: $1.32.

Not that I’d want to live there, but Venezuela has the cheapest gas in the world at $0.08 per gallon — second cheapest: Iran at $0.26 per gallon.

Misery loves company.

And when it comes to “gas pains,” we are all happily miserable to live in the day of modern transportation and to pay the price for it.

2021 Toyota Land Cruiser delivers luxury from a humble beginning

BY CRAIG AND DEANNE CONOVER

T

oday’s Land Cruiser is way different from its humble beginnings back in 1951, and if truth be known, can trace its real origins back to World War II. Back in 1941 when the Japanese army occupied the Philippines, they came across an old Bantam MK II Jeep and sent it back to the mainland wanting Toyota to come up with a similar light duty vehicle that could be used to further the war effort.

Later that same year the army asked Toyota to come up with a light duty truck that could get to places that other larger trucks could not, so they developed a version of this new Jeep-type vehicle but gave it more truck-like attributes.

Jumping ahead almost 10 years, the Korean War had started and Japan was still rebuilding from WWII, when the U.S. Army asked Toyota to make 100 actual Jeeps from the old Willy’s specs that were provided to them. Thus the original Land Cruiser was born from humble and also a somewhat controversial circumstance.

It was still three years until the name Land Cruiser was actually assigned to the new four-wheel-drive go-anywhere vehicle, and this coming after a prototype of the new vehicle was driven by a test driver to the sixth stage of the Mt. Fuji climb, higher than any previous vehicle had ever made it.

Moving ahead now some 70 years in history, we find that the Land Cruiser has become the longest-running nameplate in Toyota history and also has made itself into much more than just one of the top off-road vehicles to come around in that long history.

Today’s Land Cruiser is at the top of the Toyota food chain being not only one of its largest vehicles but also one of its most luxurious in the line. With a starting price of $85,815, we would totally

expect that it would be loaded with comfort and style points to attract the types of buyer that are able to commit to this level of 4x4.

We have to be honest, after a week with the Toyota Land Cruiser we were definitely impressed and got very used

to driving a full-sized SUV. To that point, getting in and out of tight spaces was a challenge in the Land Cruiser as it handled just like the large bodyon-frame vehicle that it was.

COURTESY INTELLECTUAL RESERVE

Senior members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints may now serve as service missionaries no matter where they live.

Many can live at home and serve between eight and 40 hours a week.

Church expands its Senior Service missionary options

BY GENELLE PUGMIRE

The Pyramid

Starting this month, senior members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints who meet the requirements may be called as service missionaries no matter where in the world they reside.

In the past, service missionaries have only been called in the U.S. and Canada and a few other locations.

Now, service missionaries as young as 26 may serve from their homes wherever they live in the world.

The new missionary information was sent in a letter to church and local leaders from the First Presidency, which includes President Russell M. Nelson and his counselors, President Dallin H. Oaks and President Henry B. Eyring.

Senior service missionaries live at home and serve for eight to 40 hours a week for a minimum of six months and as long as two years. Their

local stake president continues to be their ecclesiastical leader, according to the letter.

If senior couples can, they are still encouraged to serve missions away from their home area.

“We are deeply grateful for the faithful service of senior missionaries around the world and for the significant contributions they make in building the kingdom of God,” the letter from the First Presidency says.

The church’s 20,000-plus senior service missionaries help assist in mission offices, bishops’ storehouses, distribution centers, FamilySearch centers and libraries, self-reliance programs, BYU-Pathway, employment centers and many other places, according to church information.

Opportunities for senior missionary service, both at home and away from home, were shared in a recent update to Chapter 24 of the church’s General Handbook.

Thousands of senior service missionary opportunities are currently available.

For example, in February 2021, senior service missionaries began to be called and assigned to serve in the church’s temples in the United States and Canada to perform non-ordinance work. They will fill roles previously carried out by temple volunteers.

Senior service missionary candidates can review and request which kind of service they prefer.

More information is available at http://SeniorMissionary.ChurchofJesusChrist.org.

This portion of the church website is available in English and will soon be available in French, Spanish and Portuguese. The page matches church needs to individual talents, interests and availability for those interested in applying. New service opportunities are added to the site continually.

Find peace by staying present

BY DAVE SCHRAMM

Utah State University Extension family life specialist

It is easy to get caught up in the events of the past or the future. However, doing so only brings worry and causes you to miss out on the present. On the other hand, mindfulness — or focusing on the present moment — leads to better health, lower anxiety and greater resilience to stress. Learning to incorporate the concept of “flow” is one of several ways to increase mindfulness.

Have you ever enjoyed an

activity so much that you did not feel time passing? This intense absorption and involvement in what you were doing in the present moment is called flow, and it is generally pleasurable and fulfilling.

In addition, the enjoyment is usually lasting and reinforcing and provides a natural high that is not accompanied by negative feelings.

Although it is easy to experience flow during our favorite activities, we can enjoy this feeling more often during other activities with practice, and

experiencing flow will come more naturally. Consider these five tips: Control your attention — Try to keep your full attention on the task at hand. If your mind wanders, bring it back to the present moment. If you are having a conversation with another person, try to stay completely focused on what they are saying. Be patient with yourself as you work to develop the ability to stay focused.

Cox’s ‘Endgame’ advice: Please play responsibly

BY CONNOR RICHARDS

The Pyramid

Utah Gov. Spencer Cox on Thursday urged Utahns to exercise caution and “personal responsibility” as statewide COVID-19 restrictions are lifted.

Utah’s coronavirus public health orders were terminated earlier this week after the state reached multiple metrics laid out in the “endgame” bill passed by the Utah State Legislature. Masks will still be required in K-12 schools through the end of the school year.

During a weekly press briefing on Thursday, Cox said Utah met the requirements for lifting COVID-19 restrictions “a little earlier than anticipated,” which he called “great news for the people of the state of Utah.”

“It means that our case counts are down, it means that our hospitalizations and our ICU … utilization is down and, most importantly, it means that our vaccination numbers continue to grow and vaccine availability continues to grow as well,” the governor said.

More than 2.2 million vaccine doses had been administered in Utah as of Thursday and around 56% of all eligible people have received at least one dose, according to Cox, who added that the state is on track to reach the “incredible milestone” on Friday of having 1 million Utahns fully vaccinated.

With statewide restrictions on gatherings and distancing lifted, the governor said there will be “a transition to people and to institutions to make choices that they believe are necessary to keep their employees and their patrons safe, and they will continue to do that.”

“And so, of course, many of our businesses will still have

In this March 18 file photo, Utah Gov. Spencer Cox speaks during his monthly news conference in Salt Lake City. some of those restrictions in place. They will be loosening those as case counts continue to go down,” he said. “More than anything, it is now really about personal responsibility.

People need to exercise caution, especially those that are not vaccinated or who are at high risk.”

The governor continued, “Please show kindness, please show some humanity and some grace when dealing with people who see things a little differently.”

Lt. Gov. Deidre Henderson said she was “really, really excited and hopeful today as our efforts that have been underway for a long time seem to be paying off.”

“And not just the efforts on behalf of state officials and public health workers, but every Utahn has put forward a lot of effort over the past yearplus,” she said.

Henderson noted that the state’s vaccination effort has been an “evolutionary process,” adding that officials

“want to make sure that people who have a hard time getting vaccinated, but that want to get vaccinated, can get a shot.”

According to the lieutenant governor, 41% of Asian adults have received at least one vaccine dose, compared to 34% of Hispanic adults, 23% of Black adults and 23% of Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander adults. Over 50% of white adults have received the vaccine.

“So we are making progress, but we still have work to do,”

said Henderson. “We want those rates, really, to be the same across the communities in our state.”

Thursday’s press briefing was the last to feature State Epidemiologist Angela Dunn, who is leaving the Utah Department of Health to lead the Salt Lake County Health Department.

Cox and Henderson both thanked Dunn, who was thrust into the public spotlight as the pandemic hit Utah, for her work keeping Utahns informed

and safe.

“She has saved lives,” Henderson said. “The work that she has done for our state has saved many lives. And we’re very, very thankful for that and grateful to her and wish her the best in her future endeavors.”

The large SUV is, however, powered by a very capable 5.7-liter, V8-engine that gets 381 horsepower and 401 lb.-ft. of torque, and is rated to tow 8,500 pounds. A fact that we are sure that Toyota mechanics have confirmed after hearing how they spec out their trucks, we would expect nothing less from the top-of-the-line SUV. After our week with the Land Cruiser, we did find as expected that it was not going to win any mpg competitions anytime soon as we averaged just 15.5 mpg. The good news was the SUV did not demand the use of premium fuel.

Even though the Land Cruiser has become synonymous with luxury, the large SUV still packs a punch when it comes to going off road as Toyota has equipped it with every possible off-road option that the company has developed for its line of great 4x4’s. The CRAWL control will keep the 4x4 going very slow through automatic throttle control even in a steep descent so the driver can concentrate on steering the vehicle.

To help with that steering, there are now surround view cameras that can be activated at low speed so the driver can see directly in front and down both sides of the SUV making any obstacle easy to overcome. Also included is Toyota’s Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System that helps to keep optimal traction no matter how uneven the terrain becomes. It will even disconnect the sway bars to allow for more wheel articulation to maintain even more traction. It’s a really cool four-wheel-drive system.

Inside, the Land Cruiser was loaded with all kinds of extras. There was leather

On really cold days, the engineers have included what they call a Positive Temperature Coefficient heater that instantly warms the air as it is passed over an electric heated ceramic element, kind of like pushing the air through a blow dryer.

some to have a great sound system to go along with it.

The 9-inch touchscreen located in the center console of the dashboard made for easy access to all the controls we could have ever needed. Navigation is standard along with satellite radio and Bluetooth connectivity. About the only fault we could find was there was no included fan speed control on the dash board — it had to be done through the climate control screen.

Sometimes it is just easier to turn down the fan with the twist of a knob without having to navigate through a touchscreen.

All of the great Toyota safety features were also part

of the standard package, of course, with blind spot monitoring, adaptive cruise control, emergency braking with pedestrian detection, lane departure alert and automatic high-beam headlamps and rain-sensing wipers.

The Toyota Land Cruiser is a great ride and will compete with any luxury SUV as well it should after so many wonderful years in the manufacturer’s lineup. It is a great family vehicle that will keep mom, dad and all the kids very happy all the time. We even doubt that the question are we there yet will ever even come up!
