I wanted to give our Utah members a quick update on some events and happenings in the Beehive State. First off, it looks like the gang over at USA-ALL is hosting a really fun event this coming Memorial Day weekend at Little Sahara Sand Dunes. They are calling it the “Dune Crazy Cleanup” and it sounds like a lot of fun. It will also benefit one of the best recreational access groups around (USA-ALL RULES!!) (more…)

This next weekend (Memorial Day) if you don’t have plans already, consider going to Little Sahara Sand Dunes for some fun and support of USA-ALL. Included is a flier for further information, USA-All Little Sahara Flyer. Hope to see you there.
