March/April 2019 UL

Join us as we embark on a journey through Utah with Utah Life’s March/April 2019 featuring:

Utah Life Magazine has prepared another adventure around our state, from a backcountry gulch in the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, to the bustling Lion House historical restaurant in Salt Lake City, to dives into the lives of former Utah residents like Edward Abbey and Fay Wray.

• Photo essay on Beauty and the Beasts: Nothing says spring along the Wasatch like a mountain goat, a moose or a bighorn. Or, as we like to call them, animals with headgear.

• A group of backpackers returns from remote Coyote Gulch with two messages: 1) You’ll never be the same. 2) Beware the intelligence of ravens.

• Despite a poverty-stricken childhood in a Utah mining town – or maybe because of it – Fay Wray, the star of film’s first King Kong, found success in Hollywood.

• Half a century ago, an eccentric author named Edward Abbey wrote about his ranger days in what is now Arches National Park. Desert Solitaire established him as an icon of the environmental movement.
