Drawing for spring turkey permits begins SALT LAKE CITY — Thanksgiving is a time centered around all things turkey. From cute home decor to deliciously prepared main courses, turkeys are a big focal point of the holiday. If you like the idea of harvesting your own locally sourced turkey, instead of fighting the crowds to buy one at your neighborhood supermarket, you can start planning now for next year’s Thanksgiving feast — apply for an opportunity to hunt turkeys in Utah next spring. The application period for the
spring 2021 limited-entry turkey hunt opens on Dec. 1. To be included in the permit drawing, you must submit your application before 11 p.m. on Dec. 28. You can apply on the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources website or over the phone by calling the nearest DWR regional office. The results of the drawing will be released no later than Jan. 7, 2021. You’ll be notified by email, but you can also get the drawing results online or by calling 1-800-221-0659.
The limited-entry hunt will be held April 10-29, 2021. The following permits are available for each of the DWR’s five regions: Northern: 400 Central: 250 Northeastern: 249 Southeastern: 305 Southern: 1,550 If you don’t draw one of the limited-entry permits, however, you can still hunt turkeys in the spring. After the limited-entry hunt is over, the general statewide turkey hunt hap-
pens in May. Permits for the general-season hunt are not limited, so you’ll have no problem getting one. Permits for Utah’s general statewide turkey hunt go on sale at 8 a.m. on Feb. 25, 2021. The general turkey season will be held from May 3-31, and the youth turkey hunt will run from April 30 to May 2. More information about Utah’s upcoming spring turkey hunting season is available in the 2020-21 Utah Upland Game and Turkey Guidebook. The free guidebook is
Road’s avalanche season to start
GLORIA ALBRECHT PHOTOS
Know the terrain and conditions likely to trigger an avalanche and practice using a beacon for snow safety on Skyline Drive.
Snowpack light so far on Skyline Drive In Sanpete County the snowpack on Skyline Drive is off to a slow start this season. Warm temperatures have punctuated the season’s first few snow events in Sanpete County, and as a result the snowpack is not very impressive. But make no mistake — the snow will come, and with it avalanche danger, which peaks in January and February in Utah. When a big snowstorm dumps lots of snow on top of conditions such as those that exist now on Skyline Drive the perfect set up for avalanches may exist. “Wind is the most common cause of avalanches since wind can deposit snow 10 times faster than snow falling from storms… If
the weight of new snow is added faster than the buried weak layer can adjust to its load, then it fractures and forms an avalanche. But wind, snow or rapid warming do not always produce avalanches. It depends on the condition of the preexisting snow and the conditions during the storm. With very stable preexisting snow, even heavy, new snow with wind can bond well and be perfectly safe in the right conditions” according to the Utah Avalanche Center. Utah ranks fourth highest of the 50 states for avalanche deaths, with an average of four fatalities annually for the past twenty years. Avalanche victims are backcountry recreationists — snowmobilers, snowboarders, snowshoers, and skiers. Snowmobilers lead the list with twice the number of fatalities as any other snow activity. Fatalities aside, avalanches

History of turkeys in Utah
There are currently between 25,000-35,000 wild turkeys throughout the state, and they’re doing really well. There are two turkey subspecies that live in Utah: Rio Grande and Merriam’s. Turkeys Please see TURKEY, Page A2
Public can view BLM wild horse operations FILLMORE — On Nov. 29, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Fillmore Field Office will begin gather operations on the Confusion Herd Management Area (HMA) in western Utah. The gather is expected to last approximately 14 days. The BLM will gather 500 and permanently remove approximately 480 horses captured from BLM-administered lands using the helicopter drive-trapping method. The appropriate management level for this HMA is 70-115 animals and the current population is approximately 661 horses. Horses removed from the range will be transported to the Axtell Off-Range Contract Wild Horse Facility in Axtell, Utah. The BLM anticipates administering population growth suppression in the spring or summer of 2021 on approximately 17 mares that will be returned to the range. Opportunities are available for the public to observe daily helicopter operations through BLM-escorted tours so long as conditions remain safe for both the horses and participants and ensuring that gather operations are not disrupted. Observers must provide their own transportation, water, and food. No public restrooms will be available. The BLM recommends weather-appropriate footwear and neutral-colored clothing. Binoculars and four-wheel drive or other high-clearance vehicles are also Please see HORSES, Page A2
GUNNISON VALLEY HOSPITAL BIRTH ANNOUNCEMENTS are also responsible for numerous injuries and significant damage to recreational property like snowmobiles or ski equipment. In the 2019/2020 winter season there were six fatal avalanche occurrences in Utah, five of them
were snowmobilers. Backcountry recreationists can, and should, become more familiar with the snow conditions that create high avalanche Please see SKYLINE, Page A2

James Reed Cheney 1953-2020
James Reed “Jim” Cheney, 67 of Fairview, Utah, was taken from us way too soon on Monday, November 23, 2020. Born June 13, 1953. He was the son of Reed and Loa Cheney. Jim was born and raised in Fairview. He graduated from North Sanpete High School in 1971. Jim married his high school sweetheart, Arlis Anderson, January 3, 1970. Together they had Lori and Dana. They later divorced but remained the very best of friends, they were always the perfect example of what co-parenting should look like. Jim then spent some time in California, 1973-1976, where he owned and operated a 76-service
station. In 1975 he went on a blind date where he met his soon-to-be wife, Diane Farina. Jim and Diane married in Alameda, California, April 3, 1976. They sold the station and headed home
to the farm in Fairview. In between farming, search & rescue, Fairview fire department, and having fun, he managed to find time to work. Jim started with Fairview City as a handyman. He then moved into the water department, from there, to the power department. Jim then decided to attend the Utah Police Academy and was certified in November 1984. Later he became Fairview’s police chief. He really was the kind of Police Officer everyone loved. Jim retired from Fairview City on March 31, 2007. He served the community of Fairview in one form or another for over 30 years. Jim was a wonderful loving son, brother, hus-
band, daddy, papa, and papa great! He is survived by his wife Diane, his best friend Arlis Cox, Sister Hazel Bullock, Children: Lori (Travis) Chambers, Dana Cheney, Lindsay (Lyle) Poole, Marci Cheney, Jami (Jacob) Christensen, Jim (Judy) Cheney, 17 grandkids, three great grand kids. A viewing will be held Friday, December 4, 2020, from 5:00pm — 8:00pm at Rasmussen Mortuary in Mt. Pleasant, Utah. Funeral services will be held Saturday, December 5, 2020, at 1:00pm “on the river”. Jim’s property on the cemetery road in Fairview. We chose the farm to allow for social distancing. Online condolences at rasmussenmortuary.com.

strongly recommended. Details on the BLM-escorted tours will be updated each evening during the gather and announced daily on the BLM gather hotline at (801) 539-4050. Gather operations will begin on Sunday, November 29, and individuals should meet at the Border Inn located on the Utah-Nevada Border on Highway 6 and historic Highway 50 where tours will depart at 6:00 a.m. MST. Please note that COVID-19 guidelines for visiting parks and recreational facilities will be followed. These guidelines, along with the number of visitors present each day will determine the observation locations. The following COVID-19 guidelines will apply: Always stay at least six feet from others. Avoid gathering with others outside of your household. Wash hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.

danger. The Utah Avalanche Center states “what we normally call avalanches are “slabs” or cohesive plates of snow that shatter like a pane of glass and slide as a unit off the mountainside. Natural avalanches occur because of new or windblown snow overloading weak layers or because of rapid warming, but there are almost always obvious signs

of instability by the time avalanches come down on their own.” However, “in 90 percent of avalanche incidents, the VICTIM or someone in the victim’s party triggers the avalanche. Statistics show that 93 percent of avalanche victims can be recovered alive if they are dug out within the first 15 minutes.” After 45 minutes, only 20 to 30 percent are still alive and after two hours there are rarely survivors. Being buried in an avalanche is like being buried in concrete. You can rarely dig yourself out; your friends must dig you out. The Utah Avalanche Center states that “an average-sized avalanche travels around 80 mph and it is nearly impossible for someone to outrun an avalanche. A fast snowmobile has some chance but everyone else has a slim chance at best. If you are on a snowmobile you have the advantage of power. Grab some throttle and use your power and momentum to your advantage. If you are headed uphill, continue uphill. If you are headed across the slope, continue to the side to safe snow. If you are headed downhill, your only hope is to try and outrun the avalanche. Remember that large avalanches travel 60-80 miles per hour, and they are difficult to outrun. Also, remember that a disproportionate number of avalanche fatalities occur when one snowmobiler gets stuck on a slope and another person rides up to help them. Never go up to help a stuck buddy unless there are several other people in a safe place who can dig you out. This, of course, requires that
everyone be wearing beacons and shovels and has practiced regularly with them.” All serious backcountry snow sports enthusiasts should own a beacon as well as a probe and collapsible shovel, carry them and know how to use them. The Sanpete Ranger District operates a beacon park about 15 miles east of Fairview on Hwy 31 where beacons can be tested, and recreationists can practice using them. Getting everyone in the group involved in this exercise is both fun and useful. And it can save a life. “Recognizing avalanche terrain is key to staying alive and having fun in the backcountry,” says Dale Atkins, an internationally known avalanche professional and mountain rescue expert. “Dry snow avalanches are most common on slopes of 30–45 degrees. Slab avalanches tend to be less frequent on slopes steeper than 45 degrees, as the snow tends not to build up into thick, deep slabs. The steeper the slope the more gravity is trying to pull it downhill, and in terms of avalanches, any slope steeper than 25 degrees is considered steep.” For those interested in classes to learn everything from basic avalanche awareness, avalanche rescue, rescue fundamentals and companion rescue there are a multitude of courses available for the public, special classes for women and even special classes for youth. The Utah Avalanche Center hosts these courses all over the state of Utah throughout the winter season. Visit their web site at utahavalanchecenter.org/education and click on “UAC and KBYG
Classes” for dates, times, and locations. Dozens of classes are also available from Weber State University, Utah Mountain Adventures, Utah State University, Backcountry Pros, Snowbird Mountain Guides, White Pine Touring and The American Avalanche Institute. Any combination of field excursions, classroom learning, Zoom sessions and meetings will be used, depending on the course. There may be a fee for participation. For more information go to the Utah Avalanche Center’s web page and click on the “other classes” tab on the left side of the page. Locally, Snow College offers a course in Winter Technical Leadership (OLE 2550). This course “provides a combination of theoretical background and technical aspects of leading and managing groups in winter environments, highlighting avalanche awareness, while utilizing specialized hands-on skill development such as snowshoeing, skiing, and ice climbing. It will emphasize specialized clothing/ equipment selection, care, and maintenance, equipment nomenclature, technical aspects of avalanche awareness and assessment, backcountry travel and route finding, risk management, and related beacon search and rescue procedures.” “Know before you go!” Avalanche conditions can be found at Utah’s Forecast Hotline (888) 999-4019.

Thanksgiving gender reveal
T
here is a phrase that is used frequently which involves two elements. I’m discovering that the phrase isn’t necessarily true. At least it isn’t in my particular personal case. The phrase I’m talking about is: “old and wise.” I have the “old part” down. I’m getting better qualified at that every day. I’d have to research it, but I don’t think there is a senior citizen discount in existence that I don’t qualify for. When I’m in restaurants, servers don’t bat an eye when I order something from the senior menu. It’s humiliating. Couldn’t someone humor me and ask to see my ID at least once more before I die? (Could it be that my graying hair makes my senior status painfully obvious?) It’s the “wise part” of the “old and wise” phrase that is giving me trouble. I gather, from looking at a dictionary, that being wise means “having or showing experience, knowledge, and good judgment.” I’ve decided that the simple act of getting older doesn’t always equate into wisdom. The world is moving so fast. Knowledge, technology, pop culture, societal innovations, etc. etc. are so hard to keep up with. Evidently even simple concepts that everyone else seems to be up to date on are leaving me behind in the dust. Here’s an example: Gender reveals. Okay, I know what they are, but there was an important element about them that I learned over the Thanksgiving Day holiday. My youngest son and his wife are expecting a baby. They announced the expectation when our family was all together on vacation in California a couple of months ago. We were gathered together visiting when a baby sonogram picture was tossed out onto the table with no immediate explanation. I believe that I was the last one in the group to “get” that a “we’re going to have a baby” announcement was being made. Fast forward to Thanks-

have a long history of being in Utah, but while today’s populations are thriving, that wasn’t always the case. “Based on historical and archeological evidence, it’s clear Native Americans and turkeys coexisted in Utah,” DWR Upland Game Coordinator Heather Talley said. “That evidence includes pictographs, petroglyphs, blankets made from turkey feathers, and turkey bones that have been found at places where Native Americans lived historically.” However, until the 1950s, established turkey populations hadn’t been seen in Utah in 100 years or more. Except for a failed reintroduction in the 1920s, no records exist of turkeys being in Utah from the time Europeans started exploring the
giving Day last week to a gender reveal event, where I displayed my lack of knowledge again. A bunch of family members were gathered in an electronic video meeting with split screen pictures of everyone. There was a lot of suspense and build-up before a special cake was cut. The inside center of the cake was pink, which, of course, revealed that a baby girl will be welcomed into the family this spring. What I didn’t “get” this time around was that the gender reveal was as big of a surprise to my son and daughter-in-law as it was to me. That, evidently, is the most common way of doing this event. I’d always assumed that the prospective parents knew the sex of the baby in advance and that the “reveal” was for the benefit of family and friends otherwise. I got laughter and the “what rock have you been living under?” treatment when I was dumb enough to ask questions that displayed my ignorance. It now makes sense to me. A trusted friend becomes the “gender guardian.” This person knows the gender of the baby before the parents do. The information is guarded and this person helps with the arrangements of the event or party. I have to say that it was fun to participate in the announcement of the news that we are in expectation of our 4th granddaughter. It added to the thanksgiving effect of the day. A new baby coming to the family hits the top of the “gratitude-o-meter” and “rings the bell.” It made my wife and I think back to our old-fashioned gender reveal events with our own children. Those events all happened in the delivery room of the hospital. Our two sons and our daughter arrived into the world and brought the news of their gender to us, live and in person. I’m hoping to become wiser as time goes on. Be patient with me. As fast as things change these days, it might be a tough battle. — Merrill
state to the successful reintroduction of the birds in the 1950s. During the 1950s, biologists with the Utah Department of Fish and Game (the agency’s name was later changed to the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources in 1967) successfully released Merriam’s wild turkeys in Utah that had been obtained from Colorado and Arizona. These transplants established turkeys in Grand, Garfield, Kane, Iron and Washington counties. Turkeys from these populations have since been trapped and relocated within the state. Beginning in 1989, the DWR began a wild turkey trapping and transplanting program within the state using mostly Rio Grande turkeys and occasionally Merriam’s turkeys from Arizona, Colorado, Kansas, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas and Wyoming.

t has been just a little over 10 years since we started reviewing cars way back in the year 2010, as a photo memory popped up for us a couple of weeks ago showing the first Honda Accord that came out for a weeklong test drive. With that tidbit in mind, ever since Craig was a teenager he has always dreamed of CRAIG & DEANNE having a Corvette as CONOVER an everyday driver, but of course that has never been the practical solution for a car. So when we started reviewing cars back then he, could only hope that someday a Stingray would make its way out to Utah for however much time and we would have it in our garage! Over the years, a couple of different Corvettes have come and gone from the fleet, but have never managed to make the Utah connection. Don’t get us wrong, we have had some great vehicles over those 10 years: a new BMW i8, a new Chevrolet Camaro convertible, a new Toyota Supra and many others. But the Chevy Corvette just never seemed like it would be a reality. So when it was rumored that the new 2020, completely redesigned from the ground up Corvette might make it to the fleet, we started asking what we

And then on a magical Friday morning, Craig got a call from Automotive Media Solutions asking if we would be okay to take the all-new Stingray on a limited four-day loan as they were trying to get it to as many journalists as possible before winter weather set in. Of course we would be happy to take the new Corvette, no matter for how long. Just getting a chance to drive the true American Sports Coupe that is so
hard to find right now would be amazing. It just so happened that our time in the new Vette would be on a weekend — even better; now Mother Nature would just need to cooperate. And cooperate she did, bringing temperatures in the low 70s in late October and a perfect Halloween weekend for us to get some serious time in the new Corvette.
