Spring is the time to focus on fishing. The exception to this rule occurs when turkey season arrives. This combination of aquatic and terrestrial pursuits makes the end of April and May one of the busiest times to be outdoors. Last year turkey season coincided with the arrival of coronavirus…
Trout anglers divide aquatic systems into three types; still waters, tailwaters, and rivers. In the spring, fishing is most successful in still waters and tailwaters.
BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) — Payments for dead wolves. Unlimited hunting of the animals. Shooting wolves from the air.
A couple dozen miles down a bumpy dirt road, it’s dry and dusty in this remote corner of Box Elder County, even in February.
It’s again time to review what the Utah and Idaho legislative sessions are considering that could affect fish, wildlife or the hunters and anglers that pursue them.
DENVER (AP) — Snowboarder Maurice Kervin glided into the snow along the steep terrain in the Colorado backcountry like he’s done so many times.
Lakes and streams have the capacity to produce a certain number of fish. This capability is based on the amount of water, water quality, food sources, and conditions of the habitat. Natural aquatic systems can maintain a given number of adult fish by recruiting young fish into the population…
If winter and the pandemic have you feeling cooped up, now is the time to get out and see America’s national bird in all its glory without having to travel all day.
We have now been living under the cloud of COVID-19, wearing masks and practicing social distancing, for over a year. Maybe, like me, you hope that the finish line is around the next bend.
All adult women in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are included as members of the Relief Society, the church’s women’s organization. Formally organized in 1842, women in the church originally wanted to form a charitable society to meet the needs in their community by caring f…
Asian American Christian leaders said Thursday their congregations are saddened and outraged after a white gunman killed eight people — most of them women of Asian descent — at three Atlanta-area massage parlors. And they’re calling for action beyond prayers.
Recently, I was at the car wash vacuuming the crumbs and gathering random rubbish out of my vehicle. I was appalled at the mess that had built up, creating a layer of broken toy, winter glove, and granola bar wrapper rubble that had become a geographical layer of debris.
Conservative leaders within the United Methodist Church unveiled plans earlier this week to form a new denomination, the Global Methodist Church, with a doctrine that does not recognize same-sex marriage.
My daughter recently brought me a coffee, and knowing that I enjoy my coffee hot, she ordered it “extra hot.” Now the meaning of this would be clear if not for the fact that she had ordered for me a Habanero Mocha. Now you can see how the extra hot might have a different meaning.
I’ve always been the kind of person who follows instructions and mostly does what she’s supposed to.
BEDFORD, Mass. (AP) — For over three years, Maria Macario has been too afraid to leave the white steepled First Parish church just outside Boston.
The worst aspect of Disney’s recent live-action remakes of past animated classics is that most of them tell the same exact story. There’s nothing new for the audience to gain, the characters stay stagnant, and we end up watching an almost shot-for-shot remake of the animated film for nostalg…
Along the same lines as “Coco,” “Onward” attempts to grapple with the hereafter and how families deal with death. “Coco” is much more thoughtful about it, providing an emotionally resonant portrait love, loss, and death. “Onward” doesn’t reach those heights but does produce some satisfying s…
Whatever happened to social dancing? Even up until just a generation or two ago, waltzes, foxtrots, jitterbugs, Virginia reels and square dances were common forms of fun among the old and young alike. Are these community gathering art forms lost forever?

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — South Koreans reacted with rare collective joy Monday after director Bong Joon Ho’s “Parasite” won the Oscar for best picture and three other awards, good news that came as their country struggles to guard against a new virus and counter North Korea’s nuclear threat.
Pushed back from a November 2019 release after backlash focusing on the look of the title character, which was indeed nightmarish, Paramount’s “Sonic the Hedgehog” seemed destined for failure. A revised February release date — with new special effects — didn’t do it any favors, as that time …
“Birds of Prey” is much better than “Suicide Squad,” but that’s a low bar indeed. At least it’s a bit more upbeat about Gotham and the miscreants that populate it. There’s a sense of humor here that’s sorely missing in other DC fare. It’s when it tries too hard for adorable dementedness that…
NEW YORK (AP) — The Sundance Film Festival, coming at the start of a new movie calendar, is an annual rite of renewal. New movies. New filmmakers. New voices. And that feels especially welcome this year.
“Water is life” is a phrase that exists in some form throughout the world, both in language and culture. Few would deny the fundamental importance of water to people, and indeed, to all living organisms.

Julia, 12, of Logan, tested her physical endurance on Saturday at Utah State University’s Maverik Stadium as she crawled on her hands and knees under steel hurdles, completed pushups and kicked a football into a goal post.
We are not great at evaluating our own health. Sure, our sniffles tell us if we have a cold, and back pain is pretty obvious. However, we probably tell ourselves that we weigh less and exercise more than we really do. The 2017 Utah Health Values Study noted that only 45 percent of people in …
Compared to the summer months, I always feel housebound during Utah’s winters. It’s not that I’m inactive. Rather, the limited daylight hours put a cramp in my style. I like running up Green Canyon on early summer mornings. I enjoy riding my bike around the neighborhood with my hubby, Robert…
The seasons help us schedule and plan our lives. Currently, we are enjoying the football season — Go Aggies! The camping and fishing seasons are winding down, and ski season is just over the horizon. Unfortunately, flu season is upon us (don’t forget your flu shot), and the upcoming holiday …
