With all the burn scars and the flooding that recently happened in beaver due to burn scars, I feel doomed. However I am staying in area where not much fire action has happened so maybe I'll be ok? We are staying in Mtn Green btw.

Trevor Lees whereabouts have not been confirmed

I guess enough of you finally joined Gov Cox in his calls for prayers for rain. Bout damn time!

How has the Morman church been able to hold such a large demographic including the government for 200+ years in Utah?

While I understand the social pressure and losing of family holding the next generation back, it blows my mind that with today’s education and access to information that they can hold such a strong power over the community.

The approach towards darker skinned humans until recent times. The amount of money they hold in investments. The amount of property they hold. The amount of political figures they own. The holding of power over their members. The use of their youth to make the church more money. I also don’t understand what goes on within the church with all the rules and such.

I can’t even fathom what the truth is in the power they hold.

The nice to your face and be selfish human has flourished in this society and it’s not arguable.

I just can’t understand how someone can view this conglomerate and then look at it like it’s their “holy path”

I’m not trying to argue if god is real or not or if this or that religion/idealogy is correct or not, but looking at the Mormon history and how they came about and how they established their community, it’s pretty nuts that they have so many balls to the wall all in “community members” centuries later.

Can an avid LDS member explain to me how you can be “all in” on your community with all the facts out there to understand pretty easily.

I come in peace. I’m not trying to fight or tell anyone their ideologies are wrong. I’m trying to understand.

Can anyone from Washington County tell me when the last time was they recall an actual river of water flowing in the Fort Pearce Wash? I know there's often a small trickle of water in it, but for the most part it seems to just be a bunch of sand and dirt with scrub brush filling it up. I seem to recall some water in it in 2010–2011 or somewhere around there.

I was just curious if those people that have built along the banks have much to worry about.

Hi all. I live in the Avenues in SLC. I have an obsession with emus and really want to pet some. Is there any farm experience or emu owners that would allow me to pay for a moment of petting one of the emus? It’s been a dream of mine for a long time, but I don’t know where to go or how to find anyone. Please do let me know!

Trying to get my hands on a variety of different brands and types of cigarette boxes for some art projects I’d like to do. As a former smoker I know if I went and bought them I’d for sure smoke them and I really do not want to deal with quitting again. Plus it seems dumb to buy them just for the box. I’m located in the Davis county area but will happily drive anywhere in salt lake county or Weber county to pick up. Thanks.

editing extensively bc automod keeps removing this for “personal information” even tho this is SO VAGUE COME ON! i keep trying to post this in SLC but the automod keeps removing it - please have mercy on my pathetic ass here lol!

this is a long shot but it is SO rare that i find someone hot enough to be this intrigued i’m going to attempt this.
we were both on a Delta flight from flight was delayed pretty significantly due to construction at SFO.

i was the woman with a lot of tattoos wearing a yellow tank top. we made very brief small talk while waiting to deplane. while exiting the flight bridge you stopped to tie your shoes or something and i turned around and you smiled at me.

you were a guy maybe late 30s-mid 40s. you’re from utah or SLC but work in San Francisco, maybe in tech? you lost your voice. i kept asking “sorry what?” like a fool.

i have NEVER in my life resorted to something like this but i’m telling you, i NEVER find myself this intrigued by anyone.

if this might be you, or you know who this is…please DM me! i would love to get dinner!

editing again: for real, even if this sounds like a friend of yours please reach out to him and show him my post! he will know who i am. i cannot believe i’m making a reddit post about this but i can’t think of another way to try and find him! i was so nervous i couldn’t even ask his name bc my brain decided “nah thats too forward” UGH

edit 2: man, crazy how some people seem to be reading this in the most bad faith way possible. if you feel compelled to make strange leaps of logic related to my caaaa-razy and totally unacceptable take that someone was attractive to me, i strongly encourage you to maybe look inward and think about what it is about a woman making a missed connection post that gets you so bent out of shape.

To start off, I am not from Utah. I’ve actually never been to Utah either. However, I can’t help but notice that ever EVERY single person I’ve ever met from Utah, or have seen through the media has an outstanding pearly white smile. It almost seems as if it’s a requirement or something to have beautiful dentistry if you’re from Utah. I’ve noticed that even the younger demographic have such pearly white, perfect, straight teeth! When I was 11 I had a crazy overbite and braces. Is it just me who has noticed this or is there such thing as a “Utah Smile”? Anyways i’m going to bed, bye.

Freeway is all clear, but zoom in to see the muddy mess up the river bottom.

A podiatrist from Salem is accused of attempting to entice and discussing sexual acts with whom he believed was a 14-year-old girl online.

My husband & I are visiting Utah from Scotland in September to go hiking. We are visiting Arches / Canyonlands (unfortunately can't go south enough to do Zion!).

Walking in Scotland is incredibly safe - there are no animals that can kill you. Is there anything we should watch out for in Utah? If so, what do you do if you encounter them?

Are there bears?

So me and my husband are from Texas, I have lived here for 10 years and my husband for 1 and we both really miss Big Red soda. Does anyone know where we can buy some in Utah? We live in Utah County but we would be willing to drive.

Hey, does anyone know anyone who buys shed elk antlers? Im not asking to sell them personally but I know there's alot of guys around that buy them for chews or whatever they do, and I cant find contact for any of them. Preferably close to beaver county. Im struggling for cash and i got elk antlers around my house. Let me know, thanks!

Salt Lake City, 6:00-7:00 pm at the Governor’s Mansion, 603 E. South Temple St.

As a progressive Utahn, I would never vote for John Curtis. However, I have to acknowledge that, when I write to his office, his staff does a pretty good job responding to me. Sometimes, it's just a generic response. But, sometimes, it shows his thought process in some detail where he reviews the pros and cons and admits that issues can be complex--and highlights where he specifically doesn't agree with Trump or the Repulican party line. Why do I appreciate this? Because my other Utah representatives (Mike Lee and Burgess Owens) completely ignore everything I send to them. Total radio silence. I get the feeling they either 1) don't respond to any consituents or 2) only respond to the die-hard MAGAs who agree with them. It's like they genuinely do not care about or appreciate feedback from those they represent--just from their wealthy mega donors. Anyhow, to the staffers trying to represent John Curtis, keep doing what you are doing in terms of responding and explaining your best understanding of his thinking. It makes me feel like there is some minor concern for consituent perspectives other than MAGA. To Mike Lee, Burgess Owens, and their staffers, my message is: Do better. In 2020, Burgess Owens beat Ben McAdams by +1% (3,765 votes), and yet I have never felt that he listens to, responds to, or tries to represent the half of the Utahns in our district who didn't vote for him in 2020. I think most Utah politicians in general could do a much better job trying to actually represent all of their constituents with various views rather than just towing the Republican party line. So, when I see a politician and his staff trying to be responsive and communicate, I want to recognize this.

My budget is under $3k… Family of 4. Preferably located in Weber, Morgan, Davis, Salt lake, or Utah county. We’re moving there from overseas and we’re not bringing our couch (not leather, idk what it’s made of)…. So some recommendations would be nice 🙂.
