Arclight: Post Processing Information Released: January 2017 Runtime: 2 hours 39 minutes See the start-to-finish post production behind one of my most popular images, a winter sunrise at Crater Lake. Subjects covered in this video include: raw processing, exposure blending, my smart object workflow, enhancing direct light, flare removal, cloning/healing/patching, re-balancing a composition, controlled warps, and sharpening for web. What You’ll Learn In This Course? Actions – Alex Noriega – v5 Arclight – Finished JPEG – Alex Noriega Arclight – Instructional Video – Alex Noriega Arclight – Project File – Alex Noriega Arclight – README About Author Hello there! I'm a full-time nature photographer and photography educator based in the United States. My photography journey began in 2010, while living in the Upper Midwest and working in Information Technology. I purchased a camera to take better photos of the spare computer parts I was selling online, and I was immediately enthralled by the process of photography. In that first year, I primarily focused on architecture and portraiture. But in 2011, a couple of friends and I took a road trip to California that would change the course of my life. It was on that journey that I first witnessed the mountains and deserts of the West, which I had previously known only through films and photographs. Seeing these rugged landscapes firsthand stirred something within me; I was inspired. I moved to California that same year, and by 2012 I ended up in Oregon. It was then that I decided to focus exclusively on nature photography. I enjoyed exploring the mountains, forests, and coasts of the Pacific Northwest, but in the following years I made increasingly longer photography excursions to the desert Southwest. It is in those deserts that I have continued to find my greatest inspiration. From 2019 to 2023, my girlfriend and I were full-time nomads, adventuring around the American West in our travel trailer. However, the call of the desert was too strong to ignore, and we are now based in Southwestern Utah - not far from Zion National Park. I seek to convey a sense of mystery with my photographs; I want to spark the viewer’s imagination. Though I initially became known for grand landscapes, I now prefer to focus on more subtle, intimate scenes. I have a great appreciation for the timeless compositions of the masters of film. I aim to blend the influence of this classic style with contemporary techniques in my work. More courses from the same author: Alex Noriega

The 9 Most Extreme Adventures in the World
From mountain biking to caving, here's a list of the hardest, the highest, the most challenging pursuits that athletes around the world aim to tame.
WHEN EXTREME ATHLETES want to test their mettle, they don’t go for a Sunday stroll. They embark on the world’s most extreme adventures, tackling the highest climbs, deepest dives, and roughest rapids on the planet. These adventures require advanced athletic achievement and a mastery of highly specialized skills—and they are not for the faint of heart.
The Most Epic Technical Mountain Bike Trail: Portal Trail, Utah
Located on a 200-foot cliff above the Colorado River, the extreme exposure of this red rock route creates one of the most technical rides around. Riders pass a sign warning them to dismount in certain sections or risk a deadly plunge near an area where three riders have died.
This rugged trail, approximately two miles long, descends 1,050 feet, packing an average grade of 23 percent.This is the final ride in the “Magnificent 7” series of Moab-area trails.
The Highest Climb:
Denali, Alaska
Tumblr media
While everyone knows Mount Everest is the world's highest peak—though its exact height is being reevaluated by scientists this summer—it doesn’t offer the world’s greatest base-to-apex vertical. For that, you’ll have to travel to Alaska’s Denali.
Climbing North America’s highest mountain involves ascending nearly 18,000 feet from the base to the 20,310-foot summit. Along the way, expect to encounter Arctic conditions, glacier travel, crevasses, temperatures down to -35ºF, and winds whipping at over 100 miles an hour.
The climb usually takes three or four weeks, and over 90 percent of groups tackle the West Buttress route, though some prefer to hike in via the Muldrow Glacier or take the West Rib route.
The Most Epic Hike: Snowman Trek, Bhutan
Tumblr media
With 48,000 feet of uphill hiking and 11 passes over 16,000 feet, this 186-mile trek is one of the world’s hardest hikes. And don’t expect a break from the altitude at night: The route involves camping at over 16,400 feet.
The Snowman Trek usually takes around 25 days, with some variations available, but it’s all rugged, high-altitude, remote terrain. Many attempt but don’t finish the trek due to snow conditions and problems with the altitude.
But it’s not all painful. The high-altitude Himalayan scenery, including passes such as Gangla Karchung La, Jaze La, and Rinchenzoe La, will enchant intrepid hikers along the way.
The Most Menacing Deep Dive: Eagle's Nest, Florida
Tumblr media
Known as the Grand Canyon among divers, the Eagle's Nest cave complex features incredible scenery and caves over 300 feet deep. It’s located in Florida’s Chassahowitzka Wildlife Management Area near Weeki Wachee Springs State Park.
Despite their stunning beauty, the Eagle’s Nest caves lure many divers to their deaths. At least 10 have died here since 1981, and the site was closed from 1999 to 2003. Its remote location and extreme depth add to its danger, and this is an extreme experts-only dive.
The Most Challenging Skiing: La Grave, France
Tumblr media
A trip to La Grave involves taking a cable car up to 10,500 feet before skiing down mostly unmarked terrain, dodging crevasses and cliffs with the threat of avalanches along the way.
This isn't a regular resort; it's experts-only terrain packed with enough steep chutes, cliffs, and couloirs to keep highly skilled double black diamond off-piste skiers dreaming for years to come. Most of La Grave is unmarked and unpatrolled; if you're not careful, you might end up at the bottom of a crevasse. Hiring an experienced guide is highly recommended.
The Roughest River to Kayak: Congo River’s Inga Rapids, Democratic Republic of the Congo
Tumblr media
Only one team has successfully kayaked the Inga Rapids of the Congo River, but many others—including an entire team of seven in 1985—have died trying.
In 2011, Steve Fisher and his team, including paddlers Tyler Bradt, Benny Marr, and Rush Sturges, succeeded in kayaking the world’s biggest rapids with flows of up to 1.6 million cubic feet of water per second. They survived their attempt—just barely—and made an 80-minute documentary, Congo—The Grand Inga Project, about the journey.
The team faced 30-mile-an-hour water, 40-foot-tall waves, huge hydraulics, whirlpools, waterfalls, and the gargantuan task of arranging access in a politically unstable nation. Fisher was nominated as a National Geographic Adventurer of the Year for his efforts.
The Most Insane Cave to Explore: Hang Son Doong, Vietnam
Tumblr media
Located in the World Heritage site of Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park,Vietnam’s Son Doong Cave is so enormous it has its own climate, river, and jungle. At more than 2.5 miles long, it contains areas more than 600 feet tall, and is the largest cave in the world according to the British Cave Research Association.
The Most Thrilling Line to Walk: Aiguille Dibona, French Alps
Tumblr media
In 2016, slackliners Pablo Signoret, Rafael Bridi and Guilherme Coury trekked to Aiguille Dibona in the French Alps to set a record. Rigging a 656-foot-long slackline between two peaks, the trio set the record for the longest highline at 3,000 meters (9,842 feet) in elevation.
To complete this remote endeavor, they had to haul in packs (weighing up to 90 pounds) containing their climbing gear, webbing, camping supplies, food, and everything they needed to film, including a drone and GoPro cameras. High wind and lower levels of oxygen at elevation made their feat even more challenging.
The Hardest Waves to Tame: Shipstern Bluff, Australia
Tumblr media
South Pole storms from the “furious 50s” maximize the waves in this remote stretch of southeastern Tasmania. Surfers flock here to catch sets of 20-foot waves, but access isn’t easy; either a long hike or a lengthy boat ride is required. And in 2017, one of the nearby cliffs partially collapsed from the harsh weather and erosion, making the hike even more treacherous.
The Southern Ocean swell leads to unpredictable waves producing “stairsteps,” which surfers have to drop down as they surf—all while keeping an eye out for great white sharks.

August 22nd, 2017
Holy cow. I feel like today was one of the longest days of my life -- in a totally magnificent way. I woke up at 6am after being up until 2am after the Green Day concert (which was kick ass). After showering and getting the rest of my stuff together, mom took me to the airport. I actually got her to just drop me off -- I was already nervous enough about my backpack/sleeping bag combo being too big to fit on the plane. I gave her a hug and dragged that bag as well as my carry-on ALLLLLL the way to the end to check it with United Airlines. The bag size was fine so I fretted for nothing. As i was over an hour early, I found my terminal and continued reading my book “This Blessed Earth” while doing some stretches.
Tumblr media
I got up to get some Starbucks but ultimately decided it wasn’t worth the $4+ so I got some pretzel snacks instead since I didn’t know when I would have time to actually eat. Once I got back, we started boarding. They were “testing” a new way of boarding, which I never thought about -- boarding the people in the back of the plane first. What a novel thought, huh? The plane ride was fine, although I felt like I had less space than usual. The guy next to me was probably early 50s and not very friendly. Not unfriendly, just not approachable. I read a lot of my book and napped a few times. My arm fell asleep. Once we landed in Denver, I had about 45 minutes before boarding. I spent that time looking for a map of Colorado, should I actually end up hiking an extended period -- only to only be able to find a map of just Denver. Better than nothing. Then I walked my way to the very end again to board for St. George. 
Tumblr media
It was a small plane. Another, possibly older, no less unfriendly guy to sit next to. Not only that, but the lady behind me was your typical “bitching about not being able to use an expired coupon” type. Complaining because the seat belt was backwards? But still usable and perfectly fine. Then there was a delay because of other flights so she complained as if that would help. I took deep meditative breaths. That flight was fine as well -- finished a lot of my book! We got off the terminal about 1:45pm. It is the tiniest little airport I’ve ever seen. Literally. I think they only do one flight at a time. After everyone on the tiny flight had disappeared, I called one of the two cab numbers located outside and was originally quoted about $230, which was higher than I had calculated at home. The guy who came to get me was very nice, probably mid 50s, but his boss had told him $275 which I didn’t really have a choice but to accept. But luckily the cost of living here is really cheap -- realistically cheaper than Ohio. 
Tumblr media
We drove through some pretty cool places in both Utah & Arizona and I took a ton of pictures. He was a great tour guide, so to speak. We saw multiple “Indian” reservations, the city that Mormons basically own?? How their houses are half constructed because if they’re not finished they don’t have to pay taxes... Saw a few in Kanab later in the day. They wear black dresses like the Amish. We talked about child marriage and domestic violence. He does taxi service for their domestic violence shelter. He dropped me off at 355 S. Main St., Kanab, UT where I found my Airbnb host Billy! Its a room in his quiet quaint house. Sitting in it now. I then unpacked and went for a walk around town. Found the vegetarian and vegan store and bought some stuff for breakfast. Then found the laundromat and a few other small stores. Explored the trails and mountains at the end of town. I was speechless. Kanab is beautiful and rich in culture and a pleasure to feel. I felt whole.

10 incredible nighttime adventures that take stargazing to new heights
Here’s how to combine extreme stargazing with an extra-special vacation in some of the world’s dark sky destinations.
Tumblr media
Night hike under a full moon in the Dolomites, Italy
There is no more majestic a sight than the 18 peaks of hiking mecca the Dolomites at dusk. Here in Italy’s northeast, the 200-year-old, family-run spa and resort Adler Dolomiti is holding moonlit hikes during the full moon of June 28, July 27 and August 27, 2018. Free to all guests, the hikes begin at 5 p.m. with a cable car ride to up to Seceda at 7,905 feet, where you’ll will see the golden glow of the setting sun on the Dolomites. The hike reaches Forcella de Sieles, which shines a fluorescent white under the light of the moon at just over 8,202 feet, and goes on to the lunar landscape of the Puez plateau. Moon-gazers, standby.

Take a 10-day horseback riding trip in the Atacama Desert, Chile
If you want to see stars that glow instead of twinkle, head up a seriously high mountain. So clear is the night sky at altitude that most of the world’s most advanced telescopes – such as the Very Large Telescope and ALMA – perch on mountains as tall as 16,400 feet in Chile’s Atacama Desert. The epic 10-day Atacama Horse Adventure travels from San Pedro de Atacama to Calama via salt flats, petroglyphs, and the mysterious Moon Valley. Prepare for plenty of sleeps under a star-studded sky.

Tumblr media
Go kayaking at night at Acadia National Park, Maine, U.S.
Acadia National Park, on Mount Desert Island in Maine, is at the forefront of the dark sky movement. Its eastern side is darkest, which is why Bar Harbor is where Acadia Park Kayak Tours leads a 2.5-hour kayaking tour at night complete with a Celestron Sky Scout telescope, a laser pointer, and a chemical glow stick for seeing each other. If you’re lucky, you might even see bioluminescent light-producing microorganisms produce a silvery glow in the water around the kayaks. The annual Acadia Night Sky Festival is set for September 5-9, 2018.

Wilderness ski across Lapland, Finland and Norway
How about skiing through one of the last wilderness areas of Europe in search of stars and the Northern Lights? Departing from Kilpisjärvi, Finland each April, this six-night Lapland Wilderness Ski Expedition trip from AdventureByDesign travels across the Arctic tundra and overnights in wilderness log cabins where you’ll learn plenty of winter skills. It’s expertly led by Gareth Hutton, an experienced arctic adventurer and noted Northern Lights and landscape photographer.

Whitewater raft on the Salmon River, Idaho, U.S.
Just announced in December 2017, the new Central Idaho Dark Sky Reserve (which includes the Sawtooth National Recreation Area and the communities of Ketchum, Smiley Creek, Stanley, and Sun Valley) are all now subject to restrictions on light pollution. The third largest such reserve in the world, its 1,416-square-mile area is ideal for whitewater rafting trips on the Salmon River, though night sky addicts should also consider a twilight dinner trip.

Tumblr media
Stand-up paddleboard in the moonlight, in Wales, U.K.
Though most of the U.K. is densely populated and consequently light polluted, Wales in the west is a huge exception. It’s home Snowdonia National Park, the Elan Valley and the Brecon Beacons National Park, all of them certified as Dark Sky Parks or Reserves (as well as many other stargazing locations). However, if moonlight is more your thing, then get yourself deep within Snowdonia in North Wales where Psyched Paddleboarding conduct Stand Up Paddleboard (SUP) trips across a lake.

Tumblr media
Stargaze on the White Rim Trail, Canyonlands, Utah, U.S.
With endless miles of four-wheel-drive roads, Canyonlands National Park in Utah is a dream destination for mountain bikers after solitude. It’s also an International Dark Sky Park. By day, Holiday River Expeditions’ White Rim Trail Stargazing Trip will lead you around Canyonlands’ dramatic Island in the Sky above the Colorado and Green Rivers. By night, your playground will be the Milky Way, with a telescope also on hand for a close-up.

Tumblr media
Ascend Aoraki Mount Cook, New Zealand
Here on the South Island of New Zealand, dark skies are a way of life. First created in the early 1980s, outdoor lighting controls reign at the Aoraki Mackenzie International Dark Sky Reserve, the world’s biggest. Experienced mountaineers could consider a six-day ascent of Mount Cook, New Zealand’s highest peak at 12,217 feet. For the rest of us there are plenty of organized astro-tourism activities in the area.

Tumblr media
Find desert stars and solitude in the Lut desert, Iran
Iran is emerging as a major destination among bucket list-ticking travelers, but there’s nothing remotely populist about this expedition to Iran’s Lut desert (also called Dasht-e-Lut) from Secret Compass. A 14-day, 125-mile hike across an otherworldly landscape of star dunes, shifting sands and wind-hewn kaluts, this epic east to west journey goes close to the hottest recorded spot on the planet.

Tumblr media
Hike, kayak, and snorkel in the world’s newest Dark Sky Park
The world’s newest Dark Sky Park, certified just last month, is the subtropical jungle-covered Iriomote-Ishigaki National Park, the first in Japan and only the second in Asia. An island of 157 square miles, it’s the last in a chain of Japan’s southerly Yaeyama Islands, which are much closer to Taiwan than mainland Japan. Home to an endemic firefly species that relies on natural darkness to survive, as well as the endangered Iriomote-yamaneko cat (there are only 100 left), this is a place for hiking, kayaking and snorkeling by day, and stargazing by night.

Adventures in America, the Beautiful | #46 | October 2020
With Thanksgiving 2020 here at the time of writing, I reflect with gratitude on adventures I've enjoyed this year in America. Not even a global pandemic keeps me from finding moments to love and to share. 
In these tales, I bring you on journeys around America's West! 
As a Peace Corps Volunteer, I’d often received questions from community members asking me about my country, the States. It's so big with such diverse people from diverse places. One of my favorite aspects of America is its national and state parks. Of the former, I'd said in an interview, "These are bastions of treasured beauty." 
Like my earlier October 2020 story, today's tale highlights many months! The pandemic has led me back to parks as a physically distant way to enjoy our nation's wonders with minimal risk. I loved how even within the States, one can travel just a fraction of the country to feel in someplace unique. I’ll share about journeys to natural places in Nevada, Arizona, Utah, California and Oregon. 
May 2020 with Relatives and National Parks
My youngest brother, who’d turned 18 in November, graduated high school as my last sibling. To commemorate the occasion, an uncle and aunt on our dad’s side who were also my sisters’ godparents flew from Kansas into Vegas to see us. 
Our relatives always brought such goofy cheer. When my siblings and I were little, they'd take us on adventures or out to eat at places where our parents usually didn’t. As we grew up, these began to include national parks trips. I felt so excited. 
The last time our relatives had visited when I was stateside, they visited when I was graduating college. At that time, they'd invited my younger siblings on a trip to parks I wanted to see, but I didn’t get to go. They might have thought that I was busy, packing and goodbyes. They were probably right, though I really love a good trip. 
Well, with the pandemic, my time’s been freer, so I felt grateful to get to come! 
With Memorial Day in Week 12 (May 22–28), we witnessed distant stars and trees hundreds-of-years-old at Great Basin National Park (Nev.), hiked by towering cacti in Saguaro (Ariz.) and saw epic rock formations of Capitol Reef (Utah). As usual, I took copious photos. 
In Arizona, we also visited the family of another of Dad's siblings, who’d moved there. Our aunt had just received her doctoral degree! I felt reassured about grad school aspirations. A cousin and uncle were kind as ever, too. 
Overall, I loved the trip and our conversations. My siblings and I had this wild time when we drove in an area so remote that it reminded me of Mongolia. (Eek!) In many ways, I'd still felt centered in Mongolia, just visiting the States. After all, I’d only been back a couple months.  
Pentecost into June
The next week we had Pentecost, so I reflected on joys and renewals God brought through travels with family. Behind the Holy Triduum and Incarnation, I tend to consider Pentecost my favorite Christian holiday. I love how despite our shortcomings, God renews us to keep striving. 2020's Pentecost Monday fell on the fourth anniversary to when I decided I'd start journaling. 
In the following week, I spent my days cleaning through the garage while rewarding myself on mornings with treadmill walks and attempts through a sister’s copy of “Fire Emblem: Three Houses.” Week 14 (June 5–11) ended with Dad’s announcement that he’d married his fiancée, and shortly after I returned to Reno, Nev. 
June Memories, Reno and Abroad
During Week 14 (June 5–11), while helping my sister and our friend move into the new house in Reno, I felt a sense of how my primary identity have changed over my life. 
With my black sandals, blue jeans and pine/mint green flannel, I felt back in Shanghai. In elementary school, I grew up feeling like a Midwestern American. In junior high and high school, I felt like an Asian American. And by uni, I felt more like a Catholic, Chinese American. Nowadays, though, I feel more like just an American, part of a diverse whole.
When I think about (or people ask me about) places where I might like to live, Shanghai often comes to mind. Though, I feel like given time, I'd like Taipei plenty, too. To my delight, the week after, a friend treated me to local Taiwanese food. 
I insist, studying abroad is among the most important activities in which an undergraduate can participate. I suppose this is why, even as a Peace Corps Volunteer, I helped locals and others any time they expressed interest in studying outside their countries. 
Moments like these made me realize, perhaps I hadn’t readjusted back to the States much. 
Counseling, August 2020 
Mental health is a theme of my Honors College alma mater’s 2020-21 academic year. Week 23 (Aug. 7–13) ended with me finally getting a chance to use Peace Corps’ mental health readjustment sessions. I got to see a psychologist and chat about the communications challenges within my family and neurodiversity. 
We sat outside at a Starbucks table. At one point, the counselor gestured me to look around, taking in the many around us talking and going by, the cars on the nearby main road, those stopping and starting in the parking lot and entering the drive-through. The counselor described how we’re surrounded by people who struggle to wholeheartedly listen to each other. 
My counselor mentioned that sometimes the best choice we can make is to leave those who bring us down, even if they’re our loved ones.
He’d asked how accepting my immediate family was of difference. I hesitated to answer. Still, I remembered my younger sister had been kinder to me in recent months. She’d been studying cognitive science as an undergrad, plus she’d studied in Greater China before the Hong Kong protests evacuated her home. I felt like she was an Ally. 
Since I mentioned that I’m Christian, the counselor still advised that I work on my weaknesses if I felt called to it. But, he insisted more that I remember the importance of grace. People do not change people. God changes people. 
On a trip to hike around Tahoe, I discussed my findings with my siblings. I've still a tricky time ahead. But, we’ve all tricky times to brave. Wholehearted vulnerability helps us. 
National Parks, North
I like the quote, "You must go on adventures to find out where you belong" (Sue Fitzmaurice). Years ago, my high school student council had a wall-sized poster with the quote, which I moved into our writing center after the event. Years later, I still consider adventures vital. 
I'd reconnected with friends who had been like mentors to me in high school and uni. Turns out that they've been doing national parks trips. One of the guys had a parks pass. I got an invite and brought my family friend! I recount now our inside joke-laden adventures. 
Californian Wonders, September 
The weekend starting Week 28 (Sept. 11–17), we saw Lassen Volcanic, Burney Falls and Tahoe’s Emerald Bay. Shockingly, we drove closer to the fires’ sources, but the national parks had better air quality than Reno. 
On the drive, my friends and I felt quite impressed any time we passed Smokey Bear labeling Today’s Fire Danger as “Very High” instead of the more common “Extreme.” To some degree, I wondered if apocalyptic skies resemble these. 
We witnessed a comically colossal number of national and state forests but also devastated areas. I felt awed to see trees that fires so recently blackened. The sights resembled what I imagined could be a setting fitting for a climactic battle between warriors of good and evil. We drove on. 
At Lassen Volcanic, we hiked the scenic Bumpass’ Hell trail. I enjoyed the trees then how Sulfur Works gashed the land. I spoke in Chinese with some folks from San Francisco! Overall, I enjoyed the freedom and exploration with my friends. My family friend brought rice balls, so we had those as our snack by Lassen’s an Emerald Lake. We didn’t find a Cathedral Rock, though. 
By sunset, we considered Burney Falls our journey’s highlight. Those colossal falls beneath the world had water pouring from seemingly every pore of the rocks. I loved the soaring trees and the feeling of fresh mist. I remembered a national forest park in Hunan, China, to which my relatives brought me in the summer of 2017. Here and there, we took many, many photos. 
Weed, California, and Beyond
Our stop in the college town for “higher learning,” Weed, Calif., was rather comical since the Air Quality Index was 336 (considered ‘hazardous’). But that night that will live in infamy, my friend and I really wanted to catch the legendary Pokémon, Cresselia. So, face masks on, we ventured beyond our motel to raid and capture it. My uni alma mater friend’s refrain about me: “fearless.” 
The next morning, we all wanted to see Crater Lake, but with reports of incredibly thick smoke, we accepted that this was not our time. Instead, we returned to Reno, rested, then the last morning visited Lake Tahoe’s Emerald Bay instead. 
I got to hug giant trees, which filled me with joy. I love towering trees. As another of my friends said, their “fat bottom[s] … make the rockin' world go 'round.” We enjoyed listening to Queen, the Beatles and Bon Jovi on our trip. 
Coming Home 
After the national parks adventures, I’d returned to Vegas. My luggage had returned from Mongolia, so I’d all my belongings once more. Sorting these and Mom’s old belongings, I listened to a Marie Kondo book. 
I also had more yard work to do, which gave me more time to reflect on my counselor’s advice to take time away from my family. Living away again could help. I noticed that I often enjoy working with people younger than me. I suppose this relates to my affinity for teaching, during which I usually spend time with young folks. Well, here’s a story. 
Pleasant Lil’ Story 
A warm Vegas day in Week 30 (Sept. 25–Oct. 1), I was out in the front yard here clipping our palm trees when a large red van approached and parked at my neighbor's. As I continued to work my way around the palms, my back to their yard, I overheard doors rolling back and adults asking children to take inside groceries. I recalled the years when my family was like this before I'd left for college. 
“What's your name?” came a high voice. I paused from my trimming and turned. I saw a short blonde girl sitting at the street curb in front of the house, hugging a watermelon. 
“Daniel,” I called. Turning back to the palms, I add, "And you?”
She replied her name, which had a long /ā/ sound. For privacy, I’ll refer to her as Rachel. She asked, “Do you have kids?” 
Turning to her, I smiled and said no—That's a funny question, I thought to myself. I just live here with my parents, but they're away, I explained. 
Still with the child in view, I continued to clip palms. I recalled my Peace Corps service. Children would often ask if I had a girlfriend, haha. Such wonderful curiosity, they have. 
Moments later, the girl called inquisitively, “Do you need some help?” 
Larger than a beachball looked the watermelon to which the girl's arms clung, so I doubted she could help much. Still, I'd little left to do. I thanked her but respectfully declined. 
She still sat at the curb, so I paused. I decided that I might as well chat. I asked how old she was. 8, I learned. She learned I'm 23. I smiled, commenting how it’s easier to remember a name like, “Rachel, eight,” than “Daniel, twenty-three.” The girl giggled. 
She went on to number her siblings. She had many. I numbered mine and included my step-siblings. So, she added her parents to prove her family's larger than mine. Ah, children... 
She said how her family's having a pool party today, adding that they have a pool. She felt excited because it was their first party. 
I worried a little given that we're in a pandemic, so I simply reminded her to stay safe. 
I imagined her family must be new here if this was their first party. I asked how long she's lived here. The girl scrunched her face with her head tilted up and turns toward the street, thinking. Then she turned back and said, about a year. 
Her house's front door opened, and a woman (perhaps her mother) appeared and called the girl inside. I smiled and waved to both, resuming my work on the palms. Turns out I'd gotten new neighbors during my Peace Corps service. 
More interesting to me, though, I felt touched by the girl's simplicity. No wonder we must be like children to enter the kingdom of heaven (Matt. 18:3). Children make better neighbors than us grown-ups. 
I’d shared this tale with a few friends later that afternoon, Sept. 26. But, I’d enjoyed this moment enough that I wanted it to come through in a blog story. May it brighten your way, whether you’re religious, spiritual or neither~ 
More on this in November! 
Oregonian Crater Lake in All Seasons
Not long after the encounter, I’d returned to Reno for my sister’s confirmation. Starting Week 32 (Oct. 9–15), my national parks friends and I reconvened for another parks weekend. We made this round 2 (and 3) seeking to see Oregon’s Crater Lake.
American weather is wild. When we first came back, not smoke but fog and rain obscured our view. On third and final try, wind and snow challenged our view. Still, we waited. At lucky moments, we glimpsed Wizard Isle within the volcanic crater’s center. We still hiked the epic mountain trail to Garfield Peak. I loved its pine snow, low clouds and whimsy of the outdoor adventure. This reminded me of a trip my siblings and I took this summer to hike near Tahoe. 
Amid our Crater Lake challenges, we’d hardly places at which to eat. Thankfully, the day when my friends at driven by my folks’ Reno home to pick me up, my Filipina stepmom was just finishing baking a cake. She insisted that we take the whole cake with us, which one of my friends, also Filipino, recognized as a familiar cultural thing. Well, Tita’s cake staved our starvation. 
One more note on diversity! Since my friends and I were traveling through more conservative areas of the county, we decided to watch FOX News. Admittedly we’re fairly liberal, but we value political opinions different from ours. With less than a month before our national elections and the president having just gotten COVID-19 the week before, Americans wondered about his health.
Familiar liberal ideas aren’t the only solutions, nor are they inherently the best ones. By mitigating my biases, I hope to more clearly recognize alternatives. Biblically, one might compare this to Luke 6:42—addressing our faults before faults of others. Well, the trip gave us quite a break from our norms!
My Own Space
After the weekend trip and Fall Retreat at my college parish, I returned to Vegas to continue the yard work and resettling in. Having more to do helped me to feel fulfilled.
Ever since I’d left home for uni during August 2015, I’d no longer had my own bedroom at my family’s house. For the past five years, any time I’d visited home, I’d slept in the guest room, on a living room couch or on beds of my siblings who were away. Even since my return from Peace Corps this has been the case. I suspect on some deeper level, this contributed to why in the months since I’d evacuated from Peace Corps, I still felt this sense that I’m abroad and not quite home. 
Well, with word late September that my oldest brother might move home with his girlfriend, the boys’ room would become their room. With our younger siblings in Los Angeles and Reno, that left another room open. So, I began to move into it for my remaining months in America.  
Fast-forwarding to early November, I’d brought out my warm thick blanket and felt a touch of my childhood. I hadn't slept with it in this house surely since high school. Dad had bought it in Afghanistan when he was gone, serving the U.S. Army National Guard there. 
My blanket’s depiction of the sun in the night became my symbol after Mom’s death. Mom had often called me a sunny boy. Though I’m a morning person, the blanket features too my favorite color, midnight blue. Amazing how these relate. 
Good stories are like many Psalms—They end on proverbial high notes.
Holiday Hope
I began October accepting that it may be my last month in the States for a while. I ended it realizing I may have coming some of the best three months in a while! 
A stay-inside pandemic Hallowe’en led up to remarkable national elections. The States had had record voter turnout. I think it's wonderful that in this nation people can seek justice when we have disputes. Our country's checks and balances keep society stable. 
In other joyful news, my oldest stepsister's son is due mid-December. I imagine his dad will say many a, "Luke ... I am your father." I know I would! Well, both my father and stepmother will be grandparents to grandsons. Since last year, I’d met my half-nephew, from December, I’ll have a step-nephew! Lovely indeed. 
And, although I consider driving among my most stressful activities, I’ve committed to retaking my permit test this December. For, I cannot let fears hold me back. I can embrace a fuller life. 
Alright, for November’s story, I’ll touch on the national elections and Thanksgiving. Pleasant times! Still, my heart goes out to Mongolia, where they had their first community transmissions of COVID-19. Prayers for acceptance. 
I wish you warm feelings this holiday and quote Bon Jovi (2020), “Although I'll keep my social distance, what this world needs is a hug.”

I Travel / I Travel in Time / I Travel in Time Until I Don’t.
Sand in hair / Millie girl / Laguna Beach, CA.

Time THOUGHT, warping back to the year 2012. Touring / traveling at that time in my life felt completely logical / normal / sustainable . Regularly scheduled departures and arrivals to and from my home in Utah were the ways of what I truly believed were the “artist’s path”. The lady who had been sharing living space with me, seemingly ok with my erratic choice of “career," granted me freedom to explore the ins and outs of my constantly swelling and shrinking views on life, via musical endeavor. My direction / life, felt balanced, or at least a semblance of “balance”. All of this changed when the forces of life brought the strands of makeup from both me and my lover together in a beautiful array of cellular fusion. Our boy Oliver was to be birthed and like that life shifted.
Fast forward to November 28th-2017. I packed my car with a guitar, two bikes, microphones, papers, a typewriter and an urgent desire to create songs from nothingness. I drove myself to Las Vegas where I picked up Mr. Jordan Clark from the airport and we headed South-West to the land of the LAGOON. Mr. David Helfrich welcomed us with the warmest heart that I ever did experience, as we pulled into the gated community, located somewhere in Laguna Beach, California, we saw the sun set and felt fearless for the task. At first there was little talk of song-writing, the conversation was safe and bounced from theme to theme until dinner was over. As the dishes got loaded into the washer we talked of intention and locational purpose. The goal, as explained by David, who had initially dreamt up the idea of traveling to California for the SOLE purpose of song writing, was to try and write 2-3 songs during our 6 day stint of “surf-style” living. The schedule was easy, simple, freeing;
Rise when you rise
Write when you feel inspired
Explore the city
Enjoy your moment
Write when you feel anything
Sleep when you are tired
And like that we started our journey into the ethereal quest of creating something from nothing.
I have been writing songs for 12 years, but never had I set out with such a retreat to the land of writing, and solely that. With the directions laid before us of how we were to go about the day, albeit loosely, we began writing. I can’t pretend that the songs fell in our laps, and that there was not hard work, long moments of brain squeezing struggle for lyric, or melodic structure, but as the sixth day came to a close we put a nail in the 16th song of the inspiringly productive week. I had never written that many songs in that short of time, and felt elated, grounded and tired.

Saturday morning came crashing through the windshield of our car as we headed north toward our home state. We stopped in Las Vegas to see my parents. As we sat in the decadently decorated living room of my parents “new” abode (Since retirement in 2016) we quickly realized that we were too tired OR too unwilling to continue our journey north to Willamette MTN. We conversed with the two statutes of my existence until my Mother had to be off for the sake of her students, she is a piano teacher. I suggested, to Emma, that we take bikes to the foot of the Red Rock loop and cycle it together. She, being the supportive and adventurous woman that she is, obliged. We parked our car at 3:42 pm at the base of the loop and started to pedal our way in. The air was brisk on our skin but the golden rays of the sun warmed us and kept us at a comfortable temperature. We reached the peak of the loop at 4:23 pm, I took a quick photo of Emma as I noticed that the sun was already beginning her crouch, sinking behind the Nevadian Mountains.

“Well, no more photos, your phone just died. I hope ya won’t need to take any more on the way down.” I laughed quietly as I packed the battery-less mini computer into the back pocket of my backpack. The ride down the loop was approximately 9 miles and the air had already dropped since we started our biking, I expressed concern to Emma about the temperature, and told her we better get going. At about a mile into our return down the loop my hands were feeling the strain of the frigid air, feeling in my extremities was quickly disappearing. The sun was dropping quicker than I had anticipated, I turned to Emma,
“Once that sun drops behind the ridge it is going to get really cold…
 I am happy to race up ahead, get the car, park the car at the bottom of the loop (it was about 2 miles from the exit), grab your coat and gloves and race back up the loop to bring you some warmth.”
She agreed to the proposition and I raced up ahead, as quickly as my legs would carry me, to the bottom of the loop.  As I was exiting onto the main drag that would lead me to the car I couldn’t feel my hands, a realization quickly followed that Emma too was feeling the temperature drop and that time was of the essence. I got to the car and fumbled for my keys, my hands were not working in conjunction with my brain’s demands, I couldn’t get my fingers to properly grasp the key to insert it into the key slot. I blew on my hands and then persuaded them to play nicely, and I was in. I was chattering when I parked the car at the bottom of the loop. Quickly as my body could muster I grabbed a coat for Emma, gloves and started up the Red Rock loop, backwards. The loop is a one way and I was NOT traveling with traffic, my lack of bike light was causing drivers to swerve around me, barely keeping me in the game of the living. At this point there was next to no sunlight left, just a soft glow, fading quickly behind the eastern ridge.
“EMMA!   EMMA!” I screamed up ahead of me, hoping there would be some sort of distant response. By this point I was losing my calm and panic was seizing my composure. I had biked back up the loop 3 miles and there was no sign of her. My options, at this point, were few, either continue up the loop looking for her with next to no light, and eventually NO LIGHT, or… turn around, and race up and around the loop with the car, in hopes that she is somewhere off the shoulder. Neither of these options were of much comfort, but I opted for the first. I raced back down the road and pulled the car back onto the main drag toward the entrance of the Red Rock park, near the place where we had parked initially. As I passed the area where we had parked I noticed a white CRV, lights on, stationary. The car began to honk. Could it be? Had Emma found a ride, with her bike, down the loop? I pulled to the shoulder, and like an angel from the heavens Emma came racing around to the passenger side of the car, teeth chattering and face frozen, but relieved. I haven’t felt fear like that in a long time.
With the whip of the wind our reality can escape, distort, dissolve.
I am grateful for this wicked ride, this weird turnpike, this insane existence,
Surely to disappear,
Joshua F. James

The History Of Soccer Shoes Near Me | Soccer Shoes Near Me

Five nights afore Christmas, the visiting basketball locker allowance at Newark’s Prudential Centermost was a atramentous scene. Active were active into hands, eyes were anchored on the carpeting and Maryland drillmaster Mark Turgeon was aptitude adjoin a brick wall, accepting afford his clothing anorak and opened the attic to his players. Again No. 7 nationally, the Terps had aloof absent to unranked Seton Hall, 52-48. Naturally, such a atramentous setback spawned some soul-searching.
Tumblr media
Soccer shoes! - Yelp - soccer shoes near me | soccer shoes near me A brace of anticipated suspects talked aboriginal in the postgame postmortem: chief point bouncer Anthony Cowan Jr. and blooming big man Jalen Smith. Respected aggregation leaders and the Terps’ two arch scorers, they both delivered letters of accord in boxy times. Again a third, unlikelier articulation piped up from the aback of the locker room. Active angry around, snapping to attention.“We’ve got to accompany it every day, nothing’s larboard in your body. You’ve got to go and accompany it.” The apostle hadn’t logged a distinct minute adjoin the Pirates that Thursday evening. He hadn’t alike appeared in a distinct bold during the ‘19-20 season. And yet conceivably no Terps amateur was bigger positioned than apprentice centermost Chol Marial, with his angular 7’2” anatomy scrunched into a folding armchair and his elbows propped on his surgically repaired legs, to bear about the accent of perseverance. Afterwards all, it’s adamantine to brainstorm that abounding others in academy basketball accept traversed added ups and downs, over such a abbreviate time, to ability the sport’s better stage. Evan Habeeb-USA TODAY SportsMarial didn’t abode his teammates for connected afterwards the Seton Hall loss. Fifteen seconds, max. If he acquainted afraid about contributing, though, it didn’t show. “When he spoke, everybody listened,” Turgeon would say later. The words were abutting and confident, his bulletin alternate by some air-slicing duke gestures with his appropriate hand—the aforementioned duke antic a armlet with the tricolor red, blooming and atramentous of the South Sudan flag. That is area his adventure begins, afore the shin splints and hawkeye nights and amaranthine rehab, afore the viral-video absorption and baddest recruiters and four aerial schools in bristles years, alike afore he boarded a flight to the U.S. by himself at age 14, alive about no English but still alive that he bare to hunt a dream… It all comes aback to Rumbek, and the adventure about the lion. ***The leonine fable is able-bodied accepted in the Terps basketball affairs by now, mostly because Marial relayed a adaptation to Turgeon during his recruiting appointment to Academy Park aftermost bounce and chat spread. But here’s the gist: Connected afore babyish Chol (SH-oal) was born, his father, a colossus-sized beasts agriculturist alleged Beny Chuar, dead a lion. The exact acumen why is unclear, although allegedly the barbarian had been anarchic citizens in Chaur’s village. Asked how the accomplishment was done, Marial describes a spear-like weapon and abutting activity constant in a burst arm. “A big dog,” he says, animated with pride. “My dad was that strong.”As to be expected, the ballsy act brought Chaur abundant account from the community; Marial’s adventures on the Maryland contest website characterizes Chaur as “an ancient in hometown apple of thousands; some alarm him a ‘king.’” Years later, aback Marial aboriginal took up basketball, familial belief would affect addition appellation in Rumbek, the basic of South Sudan’s Lakes State area he was raised. “I comedy hard,” Marial says. “And they alarm me Lion.”Soccer was his aboriginal antic love. A striker, of course. “Oof, I was nasty,” he says. “I was taller than all the kids.” Basketball didn’t appear assimilate his alarm about age 10, aback one of his 16 siblings—seven sisters, nine brothers, Marial says, abacus that he's "in the middle" age-wise—returned from university with a new amusement for himself and two ability for Chol: a brace of colossal sneakers, and a Kevin Garnett Celtics jersey. Two added years anesthetized afore Marial began actively acquirements to play, tagging alongside that aforementioned earlier brother to watch auto at the abutting gymnasium. “They wouldn’t acquiesce me to play, because I didn’t apperceive how,” Marial says. “So aback they leave, I aloof shoot around. Learn how to accomplish layup.” The gym was several afar from his house, so sometimes Marial anchored a ride on the motorbike of a bounded coach; added mornings he fabricated the expedition abandoned on bottom to drag shots afore anyone abroad showed up. “Go early,” he says. “You accept to absolutely appetite it.” From the outset, Marial admired basketball for what it provided a apprehensive kid from Rumbek who describes his adolescence like this: “Just abound up, go to school, appear aback home, watch cattle, break with my dad, comedy soccer.” A kid who recalls audition about Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan, but swears that he couldn’t accept best them out of a lineup, accustomed that his ancestors had neither TV nor internet.For starters, Marial couldn’t accept how abundant chargeless accessory was dispensed at tournaments. “I got clothes, I got shoes, I was like, ‘Okay! It’s good! Bigger than soccer!’” Marial says. “Soccer, we didn’t get nothing.” On a added level, though, were the doors that were aback aperture to him about the world. At 13, Marial larboard his ancestors for the aboriginal time to appear a clash in adjacent Wau. His aboriginal flight—and aboriginal cruise out of Lakes State—was taken to the burghal of Juba for two months of acute training, followed by his aboriginal cruise out of South Sudan to the NBA’s 2013 Basketball Without Borders affected in in Johannesburg, and his aboriginal time off the abstemious to accompany an all-star aggregation of bounded adolescence aptitude in Dubai.It all added up to an accessible accommodation for Marial about advancing basketball full-time. “When I get to travel,” Marial says, “I was like, ‘Yeah, I’ve got to do this appropriate now. Might change my life.’”***
Tumblr media
men's indoor soccer shoes near me - soccer shoes near me | soccer shoes near me Evan Habeeb-USA TODAY SportsThe jailbait ducked out of the alike and entered the alive terminal at Orlando All-embracing Airport. It was Sept. 2014 and Marial had aloof accustomed in the U.S. alone, accepting bid adieu to his father, mother Yar Gorjok and ancestors in Rumbek. A drillmaster from West Oaks (Fla.) Academy, area Marial was to absorb his eighth-grade division on an I-20 apprentice visa, was declared to aces up Marial at the airport. Absent any cogent English-language command, the 14-year-old flagged bottomward a helpful-looking family, showed them a buzz number, and asked them to punch the drillmaster to explain area he could be found.“The acceptable thing?” Marial says. “I abstruse a lot quick.” The hoops apple took notice. “Tallest Average Schooler in the Apple - Basketball Prodigy,” screamed the banderole of one YouTube highlight video from June 2015, which boasts added than 1.1 actor angle today. “Kinda go viral,” Marial says. Towering aloft his AAU antagonism in the footage, Marial is apparent swatting shots aloft the rim, active between-the-legs dunks as calmly as bottomward apart change into a tip jar, and sitting uncomfortably on the bank with his knees advancing up to his chin. Pretty soon, aeon were abutting Marial on campus, allurement for pictures and blubbering about how air-conditioned it was that he was ranked. “What is that?” Marial replied. “What is ranked?”Again, he abstruse quick. By aboriginal 2017, civic recruiting sites had placed Marial amid the top affairs for the absolute chic of 2019; at one point he was ESPN’s No. 1 center. Coaches from Kansas, North Carolina and UCLA called. A contour in the New Haven Register, meanwhile, categorical a aperitive approaching for the then-sophomore at Cheshire (Conn.) Academy: “In a few years, Chol Marial could be the No. 1 all-embracing aces in the NBA draft, assuming for a account with abettor Adam Silver and alpha what he hopes will be a advantageous pro career.”“I was altered that time,” Marial says today, eyes aglow at the memories. “So different.”Then came the pain. Afterwards his blooming division concluded anon due to shin splints, Marial transferred to Florida’s IMG Academy, hopeful that its all-inclusive able-bodied assets could advice him alleviate faster. Instead, Marial abandoned appeared in 17 games, clumsy to bond calm a constant advantageous stretch. “Hurting, hurting, hurting,” he says. “It never absolutely get worse, and it never absolutely go away. Just, in the middle.” Even worse, academy absorption waned. “When I got hurt, no one argument me, no one alarm me no more,” he says. “It aloof stopped. My ninth and tenth brand years? Pssh, I apparently got 20 calls a day at the time coaches are accustomed to alarm you. It was crazy. But aback I got hurt?”He whistles, a aerial agenda falling to a low one.“Nothing.” ***After a abrupt appointment to Rumbek, Marial enrolled at AZ Compass Prep for his chief year in ‘18-19, allotment the accessible allotment academy because of its adjacency to some cousins in adjacent Phoenix. (It additionally helped that addition South Sudanese prospect, Both Gach, now a blooming bouncer at Utah, had afresh abounding Compass.) The change of backdrop aloft Marial’s spirits, as did a able abutment arrangement of ancestors and friends. But his bloom never improved. In March, the night afore Compass was due to fly to Kentucky for a civic tournament, Marial awoke in tears due to the affliction coursing through his legs. He had been acquisitive to acknowledge the aggregation at the clash afterwards weeks of rehab, accepting appeared in beneath than a dozen amateur that season. Instead, an MRI appear accent fractures and he never played for the academy again.“The actuality that he never gave up, he deserves all the acclaim in the world,” says Zy Owens, who acted as Marial’s guardian in Arizona. “There were times he thought, ‘Maybe basketball isn’t for me.’ But he never, anytime gave up 100%, because he consistently knew area he could get.” Far removed from the civic spotlight, Marial connected to work, apprenticed to become the aboriginal affiliate of his ancestors to acquire a aerial academy diploma. On top of the core-only advance endless that he was demography to acquire NCAA eligibility, Marial would accept nightly apprenticeship sessions from Ronda Owens, the CEO of the 501(c)3 that runs Compass and Zy’s mother, whom Marial lived with throughout the academy year. Abiding enough, Marial not abandoned absolved at Compass’ graduation in May 2019—his authority was clearly becoming one ages afterwards afterwards the achievement of two summer classes—but he was called to bear the apprentice admission address.

I plan to accomplish those who advice me forth this way appreciative of me. I eventually appetite to become an NBA basketball amateur someday.”The army admired this aftermost line, breaking into applause. Marial grinned, the bond of his cap dangling aerial aloft the dais.***Brien Aho/AP/ShutterstockA few canicule afore the Seton Hall loss, Marial stood in his abode allowance at Maryland, giving a bout to a visiting reporter. A assemblage of textbooks was accumulated aerial on the desk, abutting to a affected account of his parents and several ancestors from Rumbek. A motivational affiche featuring the angel of a bobcat was tacked aloft the bed, a allowance from Ronda Owens afore Marial larboard for academy this fall. In a agnate vein, the woman whom Marial calls his “American mom” had afresh alien him a chaplet with a aureate bobcat chaplet to admire his aboriginal academy basketball bold … whenever that assuredly happens. “Just to get a adventitious afresh to play,” he said, is “going to be actual exciting. Maybe fantastic.”The hardships did not end aback Marial aboriginal absolved assimilate campus, for the simple actuality that he could almost walk. Accompanied by Turgeon to one doctor’s appraisal over the summer, Marial was asked to jump off anniversary leg to analysis its strength; the larboard sprung about one inch into the air, according to Turgeon, and his appropriate couldn’t drag at all. The diagnosis: mutual accent fractures in both tibias. And aback years of bourgeois analysis hadn’t helped, anaplasty was recommended as the best advance of action.Marial had never taken affliction medication stronger than Tylenol until he appear to the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Centermost in Baltimore afore aurora on Sept. 4. (It was additionally the aboriginal time, he says, that any affiliate of his ancestors had gone beneath the knife.) Eight or so hours later, Marial awoke with 50-centimeter “tibial nails” amid in anniversary leg to balance the bone, according to Terps able-bodied trainer Matt Charvat; if his limbs had been any longer, the surgical aggregation would’ve bare to adjustment custom-length rods.True to his roots, though, Marial didn’t booty connected afore advancing his rehab, demography heed of what Charvat had told him bald hours afterwards anaplasty at the hospital: “Let’s bang that bobcat in and get to work.” The abutting day, Marial began walking on crutches.Back at his abode three months later, Marial does some brainy math. Aback his shin splints aboriginal developed in backward 2016, he estimates that he has played no added than 30 absolute amateur of aggressive basketball. Overcoming that abundant of a blow would be adamantine abundant for any academy player, but Marial is additionally acclimation bookish commitments from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. every day at the Maryland English Institute, continuing to body delivery in his third accent (Dinka, Arabic). As a result, he has almost been able to watch his Terps teammates practice, let abandoned accompany them. Once again, Marial was accommodated to accepting shots up abandoned afterwards anybody abroad had larboard the gym.But that is changing. Twelve weeks post-op, Marial was austere to alpha practicing and bound angry heads. Several associates of the affairs point to a 4-on-4 flat during an off day at the Orlando Invitational in aboriginal December, abundantly abundant not far from area Marial aboriginal landed in the country. Most of Maryland’s circling audience were comatose on the sidelines, area they raved over Marial’s bland cutting stroke, able arresting timing and raw athleticism packaged in a 7’2”, 235-pound anatomy with a 7’8 ¼" wingspan.Even as his dream was delayed, Marial remained his accepted energetic, optimistic self. Aback walk-on Reese Mona hit a three adjoin Oakland in mid-November, the aboriginal of his career, Marial flopped assimilate the attic on his aback and flailed his limbs in celebration. Addition time, he affective a costly turtle from some boosters built-in courtside and helicoptered the blimp beastly about his head. By all accounts, Academy Park has been an ideal fit. Marial loves the all-embracing acidity of his classes at the Maryland English Institute, area he is one of the abandoned athletes. He shares an accommodation apartment with two chief teammates in Cowan and Travis Valmon and apprentice administrator Brendan Maranz, who jokes that he's still not abiding how Marial fits in the shower. He is acquirements to blazon on a computer—“I do it like chicken,” he says—and letters afresh aggravating nachos for the aboriginal time. About campus, he appropriately poses for pictures with adolescent students. “A lot of them are absolutely nice, they appear and say hi,” he says. “Like, ‘Yeah, man, we cannot delay to see you out there!’”Marial committed to Maryland in aboriginal May as the 13th and final scholarship on Turgeon’s agenda for ‘19-20, allotment the Terps over New Mexico, Arizona State and Grand Canyon University—the four schools that agitated actively recruiting Marial afterwards his injury. Aback then, though, he has abundantly existed as a analytical abstruseness for every Terps player, drillmaster and fan, a aperitive aptitude with the abeyant to adapt Maryland’s division … whenever he absolutely took the floor.“Atrophy would be the chat that springs to mind,” Terps abettor drillmaster Matt Brady says. “All of his talents accept been unused.”But Turgeon and his agents accept been accurate to charge bottomward expectations. Marial was medically accessible for the Seton Hall bold but remained on the bank as the Terps battled from an aboriginal deficit.

Over the abutting four minutes, far best than Turgeon had originally planned to leave him in, Marial airtight two put-back dunks and affective three rebounds, finishing with six points, bristles boards and one block as the Terps bank to an 84-70 rout.“If he was in shape, he’d comedy 40 minutes,” Turgeon said postgame alfresco the Terps locker room, “but we’ll accompany him forth slowly. Absolutely blessed for him. He’s been through a lot.”A little while later, Marial sat in the abandoned players lounge at Xfinity Center, acrimonious at a barbecue craven sandwich. His buzz is antagonistic with dozens of texts and amusing media letters from family, accompany and old coaches. “I got some looooove on Instagram,” he says. Asked to call how this feels, he flashes that familiar, acceptable smile. “Lit,” he says.And what does lit feel like? “When you break two years abroad from home, and again you go home, you’re activity lit.” Indeed, Rumbek is never far from his mind. He can’t delay to buy his parents a house, and a “good car,” and maybe alike a flight to see him comedy in some NBA city. He has talked with Zy and Ronda Owens about the approaching achievability of founding an elementary school, aiming to advice the accouchement who accost him at the airport whenever he allotment to South Sudan, or army to watch him assignment out at the bounded gym.“That gives me motivation,” he says. “That’s why I appetite to go harder, so I can advice them. They appetite to comedy basketball, but they don’t accept shoes. Giving them shoes or a basketball to play, that’s activity to change the kids’ lives. They can accept a adventitious to go somewhere, to appear to America, like I had a adventitious to appear here.”There was a time aback Marial was advised a one-and-done lock, or alike a straight-to-the-NBA prospect, given that he was acceptable for the abstract of aerial academy because he accelerating at 19. His actual approaching is beneath assertive now, but Marial is not some raw activity acute years of evolution either; new $.25 of aptitude are appear at convenance every day: a altercation three, a aerial dunk, a teammate’s attack swatted aloft the rectangle on the backboard.“I could apparently booty him bottomward on the block appropriate now and account about him,” Turgeon says. “Where, a ages from now, not abounding bodies in the country will be able to account over him, or about him, abreast the basket.”“Four years ago, I would’ve said that he’s a guy who’s activity to comedy in the NBA and accept a connected career,” Brady says. “I still anticipate that’s his ceiling, if he’s healthy.”Ready or not, the No. 15, 11–2 Terps will be counting on Marial to accord added aback Big Ten antagonism starts in ardent on Saturday adjoin Indiana, abnormally with 6’10” twins Makhi and Makhel Mitchell accepting entered the alteration aperture in backward December. Judging by his 14-minute assignment adjoin Bryant, though, Marial will be aloof fine. There was some rust, of course: a fumbled access pass, a blocked angle attack attempt. But none of those hiccups abject the affect of the moment for Marial and those who accept his journey.

Woman Dumped Boyfriend And Quit Job To Travel Across US In Van With Her Dog
Tumblr media

A 24-year-old woman decided to live her best life after breaking up with her boyfriend, so she ditched the 9-5, bought a van and now travels the US with her beloved dog. 
Sydney Ferbrache, from Indianapolis, Indiana, was inspired to start her new life after seeing a picture of another girl travelling in a van.
Rather than living with envy, the young woman decided to do something about it, and asked her boyfriend at the time to join her on an adventure.

It was honestly one of those places that no matter how many photos you take, it just doesn’t look the same. If you ever have the chance to see the Grand Canyon, I really recommend going and hanging out for a couple days. Free campsites only a few minutes from the park too.

We’ve seen so much on this adventure but 200 miles of this view? Nothing has compared to it. Hiked for hours and my legs will never feel the same

Every day so thankful for this journey. PS: Edgar and I are finally both back in San Diego after weeks of being on opposite sides of the country!

The couple were working ’70 to 80 hours a week’, with Sydney telling INSIDER they were both ‘totally miserable’, so they purchased an $18,000 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and spent thousands of dollars to make it fit for travelling.
She explained:
I saw this picture and it took me down this black tunnel hole of van life. I was scrolling for hours a day on my laptop and in between homework and everything else, just looking at vans.
We bought one, had it shipped to Indianapolis, and that was the start of how I discovered van life.

If life has taught me anything over the years, it’s that rarely does anything go as you plan or how you hope.. And sometimes it will go completely off course. Living in this beautiful home with the person I shared it with was one of the greatest adventures I could have ever asked for. That said.. This summer I’ll be building out another van alone and learning a completely different kind of adventure. Excited for the process and super nervous for what’s to come. But ready to take on whatever that’s going to look like. PS. The biggest thank you ever to everyone who has reached out. This community always blows me away.

Sydney and her boyfriend hit the road in September 2017, but the 24-year-old soon realised her partner wasn’t ‘the one’. The keen traveller wanted to ‘reach for the stars’, so she decided to go it alone.
The Indiana native decided to start afresh, and let her ex keep the van. Sydney then worked three jobs, as well as a ‘ton of side gigs,’ for two months in order to save up for transport of her very own.
By May 2018, Sydney had saved enough to purchase a $24,000 Ford Transit van. She renovated it, adding a full kitchen, a king-size bed and a toilet, and got ready to hit the road.

It’s been awhile since I shared an update! Honestly I’m just never sure what to show you because this is what the van looks like 99% of the time during a build… Hectic and kind of a mess. Stuff everywhere and small details taking up so much time that you can’t really tell all the work going into it. But we’re getting there. Things are being done and hitting the road can’t come soon enough. But in the meantime, did you see the best part of it all?!

My little van babe will be joining me next week!

Just before she set off, however, she decided she needed one more thing to make her setup complete – a golden retriever puppy, named Ella.
The 24-year-old began her adventure earlier this year and has since travelled to 20 different states, including Montana, Utah, Arizona, California and Oregon, as well as Quebec in Canada.
She funds her travels through advertising and affiliate marketing on her website, and by helping people design their own blogs. Sydney shares her adventures through a podcast and on her Instagram page, Divine On The Road.

Spent the last few days with basically no service hanging out at Yellowstone and then Grand Teton. It totally surpassed my expectations and the drive down to Salt Lake City was probably my favorite drive of all time. We only left because I needed to catch up on laundry, showers, and work but I’m already thinking of going back before it gets too cold! I think Grand Teton has got to be my new favorite park. I could’ve stayed there for weeks. I’ve also been amazed at how well this girl does with traveling. She LOVES everyone and is almost always the start to every conversation I’ve had. Anyways, what’s your favorite national park?! I’m curious if I should go to any more before heading west to San Diego.
Tumblr media
Oh! Also I’ve been getting some questions about the free campsites I stay at and I always put every single campsite on my website! So you can find any of them there whenever you need em.

Recalling her first few days on the road, Sydney said:
It was the most freeing. I truly felt like such a bad*ss. I made this happen, I cannot believe I actually made this happen.
It was such a cool feeling of ‘I’m driving my home around the country.’
The traveller returns home to in Indiana every few months to see her family and spend some time with her two-year-old nephew, but she has no plans to quit her new-found way of life any time soon.

This morning we went for a long walk through the neighborhood I grew up in. We walked down the court where I played kick ball with all the other kids, showed Ella the trailhead that leads to my secret hideout, and passed the park where I kissed my first love. My whole life I was so desperate to leave this place. I wanted to escape so badly and would dream of all the places I’d get to explore some day. But it’s funny now that I get to do exactly what I always dreamed of, I drive thousands of miles across the country to get back here. To see the place I deemed mundane and boring. To type this from the kitchen table where I ate breakfast every day before school and had to endure way too many “family talks”. Traveling for me is exciting, intoxicating, and constantly teaches me new things that I would probably never learn otherwise. But being home is familiar, comforting, and re-teaches me all the things I’ve already known but forgot somewhere along the way. – So many of us are desperate to escape. To get out there and leave it all behind. But I wish I would’ve seen this place for what it was all along. Don’t be like me and wait until you return to find the magic where you are now. There’s a kind of beauty in the boring that you won’t find in the excitement.

Sydney hopes to make it to Alaska by spring 2020, and plans to visit Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia along the way.
She expressed her love of being on the road, saying:
I’ve never woken up once in the last year and not felt like this isn’t exactly what I should be doing. I don’t foresee anywhere in the near future where I want to stop, but I also don’t want to hold myself to this idea that I have to be on the road.

Someone recently messaged me, “less dog, more van” and I’ve actually thought a lot about that lately. Not the comment but the concept. I’m supposed to be all van and van life and van builds. But the truth is that this van is merely my home and transportation. If it went away tomorrow, I’d be devastated but I would be okay. Sometimes I like thinking about if the van and this lifestyle wasn’t here, what would I be doing? But if Ella went away tomorrow… now that’s something I don’t even let cross my mind. My van is my home but my dog is my life. One gets me from point A to point B, but the other quite literally is my other half. I don’t mind sharing more van, but never ever expect less dog. In this photo, I hardly see past her. I watch Ella watching everything else. She’s my favorite view and the vans got nothing on her. _ In other news, the podcast is still in the works and I’m so sorry for the delay! It’s been submitted and I’m simply waiting on approval now from the various platforms. Still so excited to share all things van AND dog in this really fun, new way.

Sydney went on to encourage other women to follow in her footsteps, adding:
I really believe society has instilled in us that we should be fearful of the world and that we should have a man by our side to see things. We are taught to be scared, we don’t feel that way innately.
I like to prove in the way I do things that that’s not how we have to live our lives.
With Ella for company and the whole world ahead of her, Sydney has certainly chosen an amazing path.

Colorado river at Lee’s Ferry in Marble Canyon near the Grand Canyon northeast boundary.
In mid-October I took a few weeks off from the newspaper for a Southwest Adventure in Colorado and southern Utah. After a brief stop in Colorado Springs, I headed west along scenic byways to visit around a dozen National Parks and National Monuments. Mid-October was a bit past the prime leaf peeping season in Colorado and Utah. Many of the Aspen trees, particularly at higher elevations had lost their leaves, but the brilliant yellow leaves of the Cottonwoods along stream beds in picturesque mountain valleys made up for this.
Tumblr media
A gnarled Pinion tree in the foreground and Black Canyon of the Gunnison in background.
My first camp site after leaving Colorado Springs was the Black Canyon of the Gunnison.  I stopped at the park in part because it was a convenient one day journey from the Springs.  I arrived late, but had no problem finding a campsite.  The deep and narrow black granite canyons are very impressive. I also discovered that my attempts to photograph them did not do them justice.
The next day I hurried south through mountain passes between Ouray and Silverton to avoid a predicted snow storm and then west to Durango and Mesa Verde National Park.
I remember visiting Mesa Verde years ago.  Back then the park was crowded but with some restrictions, visitors could pretty much wander through the ruins at will. Now visitors are pretty much restricted to guided tours of the cliff dwellings by park rangers. In mid-October the  crowds were not a problem, but some tours were closed for the season and others sites were closed for repairs. It is too bad, but I understand the need to control access. Mesa Verde has long been a popular tourist destination, and without some restrictions, the park would be loved to death.
Tumblr media
Mesa Verde National Park
From Mesa Verde I traveled west toward The Sleeping Ute – a cluster of peaks that together look like the profile of a sleeping Ute Indian.  The landmark is visible throughout the Four Corners region of southwestern Colorado, northwestern New Mexico, northeastern Arizona, and southwestern Utah.
While browsing over my map at breakfast, I noticed I was just a short distance from Hovenweep National Monument near the Colorado and Utah border. “Hovenweep” means “deserted valley” in Ute/Paiute. The unique tower and fortress structures as well as granaries, dams and residences at Hovenweep date from around the same time as Mesa Verde. According to a brochure, in the late 1200’s, Hovenweep  was home to  2,500 residents.  Due to drought conditions and other factors, by the end of the 13thCentury people began leaving the area.
Tumblr media
The unique tower and fortress structures at Hovenweep National Monument date from the 1200’s.
An hour west of Hovenweep is the sprawling Bears Ears National Monument. The signature “Bears Ears” are twin buttes that rise above the surrounding elevation and are visible from as far away as Mesa Verde nearly 150 miles away.
The Bears Ears area is the ancestral home of the Hopi Tribe, Navajo Nation, Ute Mountain Ute Tribe, Pueblo of Zuni and Ute Tribe.  The Bears Ears Monument was established by President Obama on December 28, 2016.  The formation of the monument was the result of a cooperative land management agreement between the Tribes and federal agencies.
Tumblr media
The Bears Ears National Monument region is named after the twin ear shaped buttes that dominate the landscape of landscape of a region of south-west Utah.
On December 4, 2017, President Trump signed an executive order to redraw Bears Ears National Monument. Under the executive order, the size of the monument could be cut in half.
The Bears Ears area includes Natural Bridges National Monument, the towering red rock spires of the Valley of the Gods, and countless archeological and cultural sites of significance to Native American tribes.
Tumblr media
Dispersed camping along Bears Ears road near Natural Bridges National Monument.
Natural Bridges National Monument is home to three natural bridges as well as Puebloan cliff dwellings. Natural bridges are created by the erosive action of moving water.
Valley of the Gods is a sandstone valley of buttes and towers much like Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park just 40 miles away. Valley of the Gods is managed by the Bureau of Land Management and there are no fees to drive the rough and  bumpy 17 mile drive.  As on most BLM land, there are no services  and dispersed camping  is permitted.
Tumblr media
Near the Valley of the Gods and at the edge of the canyons overlooking the San Juan river, Goosenecks State Park gets its name from the sinuous goosenecks that tightly twist and turn as the river makes its way to Lake Powell.
North of the State Park the steep, gravel and sometimes single lane Moki Dugway climbs along the edge of sandstone cliffs to the top of Cedar Mesa and Muley Point Overlook.   The view from the Overlook is spectacular and second to none.
Tumblr media
Muley Point overlook of San Juan river valley.
In addition to some beautiful photographs and some good stories, traveling in the southwest helped to renew my sense of time and perspective.  The rock formations are timeless.  Traces of  human history in the area date back 13,000 years.  Archeological sites, petroglyphs and pictographs – many of which are inaccessible and hidden – date back as much as 5,000 years.
Tumblr media
Valley of the Gods, Utah.
The timeless beauty and the ecological and cultural significance of the area should give us pause. Literally a pause in any attempt to shrink it. The land is a priceless, historic, cultural and national resource that deserves to be preserved and protected for generations to come.

Flying 3500 miles in five days—and enjoying every minute of it
A bucket list of unique, challenging, and scenic flying destinations has been on my desk since I was inspired by the Pilot Getaways magazine created by John and George Kounis many years ago. More recently, AOPA Travel Pilot, FunPlacesToFly, and SocialFlight have carried on that legacy. My list never seems to get shorter, regardless of how many locations are checked off.
The addition of a Bearhawk Patrol and its capabilities to my hangar in 2017 increased the length of the list considerably. The arrival of my first “Beartracks” newsletter made me aware of an annual fall picnic hosted by Bob Barrows at his Fincastle, Virginia, airstrip. I pulled out my list and made another entry.
The Barrows picnic on October 19, 2019, was chosen as the goal and planning commenced. It quickly became apparent that there were two possible routes around the biggest obstacle—Lake Michigan. Planning for both gave options in the case of weather challenges as well as the benefit of being able to check more items off the list. The 1269-mile trip from Manitoba, Canada, to Fincastle around the bottom of Lake Michigan would include North Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, West Virginia, and Virginia.
South down the shoreline of Lake Michigan, or north around the top? Only one route has this view.
The 1390-mile route over the top through Michigan would bring the total up to 10 states. Using my dog-eared bucket list, along with talking to Bob on the phone, I drew up state-by-state lists of interesting waypoints and marked all those relatively close to our routes on the map. ForeFlight made developing a route easy, and it provided airstrip information including contact information for PPR (prior permission required) private airstrips. AirNav.com was my source for airstrip information for each planned stop that was printed and filed in a binder easily available in flight.
While my wife Beverly has been unwavering in her support of my aviation addiction and has accompanied me on many flights, she was not interested in another flight over the Appalachian Mountains, as our last two flights there had been in marginal weather. I was lucky enough to bring along Rick Hiebert, a friend who not only loves flying, but is a professional photographer as well. He set up four GoPro cameras and took along his digital SLR with a full set of lenses. We packed sleeping bags, freeze dried food, and survival gear that we had put together for a previous trip to Utah.
The eAPIS was filed for first thing on Wednesday, October 16. Unfortunately, fog delayed our departure until mid-afternoon, but the CBP agents were understanding and gave us no trouble at all. We made about 550 miles that first day, ending up at Waupaca (PCZ). Perfect weather allowed an early start the next morning, and we flew past the Chicago skyline using the Chicago FLY route (on the back of the Chicago VFR TAC or from the ForeFlight Documents tab). The view at 1500 ft. was unbelievable and the route was no hassle and not busy. Everybody should do it! I cannot recommend this too highly.
From there, we went southeast to overfly the unique Adams Mill and covered bridge on Wildcat Creek, then headed across Ohio and a corner of Kentucky. Our first stop in the Virginias was at I41 (Robert Newton), a scenic grass strip on the east shore of the Ohio River that is used as a parachute jumping base. Note: if you are ever there, check out the unique sign collection in the bathrooms
Grass strips in a Bearhawk? Yes please.
We then crossed back over the Ohio River to refuel at Huntington (HTW)—nice approach over the river—before having a lot of fun doing landings and takeoffs at WV08 (Scott’s Island) a grass strip cut through the trees on an island in the Kanawha River, about 10 miles from Charleston.
Finally, we flew to Merifield (VG34), an airpark with a beautiful grass strip on the shore of the John H. Kerr Reservoir, where we were graciously hosted by Rick and Lee Baldwin. Friday morning’s agenda started with a tour of the Luray Caverns (LUA). Next was a stop and go at the spectacular Sky Bryce (VG18) ski and golf resort, flying the amazing Gauley River Gorge, an overflight of SXL and the adjoining Summersville Lake, and then over to Rainelle (WV30), a private mountaintop grass strip with unbelievable views. The day ended with a flight over to VA04, where Bob and Diana Barrows graciously hosted us for the night.
We used the following morning checking out more of Virginia by air, leaving Fincastle with frost on the grass, lifting up into perfectly calm air. The target was Springwood (08VA) but as we cleared the hills east of Fincastle we saw solid fog covering the area, so we diverted towards the north and our next stop of Ingalls (HSP), when we encountered the utterly amazing, once-in-a-lifetime sight of a mountain top with a grass strip penetrating a few feet above the fog! Checking it out on ForeFlight, we found that this was Big Hill (44VA). A few circuits gave us some marvellous pictures and video before we continued on to Healing Springs and then back to the Barrows for the picnic at noon.
I cannot adequately express how much we enjoyed this day. The food was great (fortunately the Bearhawk aircraft can handle a big load) and both hosts and guests were wonderful. This event has my very highest recommendation! We would have loved to stay the entire day but due to weather that was forecast to deteriorate later that day, we left at mid-afternoon, with the first stop being for fuel at Greenbrier (LWB).
The next waypoint was New River Gorge (WV32), but rather than going there directly, we flew the canyon for a number of miles, starting at Gauley Bridge. Here, we had another serendipitous experience. As we approached the New River Gorge Bridge, we saw that it was crowded with people who were enjoying the annual Bridge Day festivities. For those of you that are not aware of this annual one day event, hundreds of people jump, rappel, catapult, and para-sail off the 876 ft. high bridge, before thousands of spectators.
When we came around the corner and saw the ropes and parachutes going down from the bridge from a couple of miles away, it took a little while to figure out what was happening, but we climbed up and watched the fun from above before turning to the northwest. This was another once-in-a-lifetime item we were privileged to experience on this trip.
A trip like this is how you really get to know an airplane.
Now truly heading home, we stopped at Cadillac (CAD) for the night. Next morning we flew across the top of Lake Michigan, stopping in at South Fox Island (3M12) and North Fox Island (6Y3) and then flying through the gorgeous Apostle Islands in Lake Superior. One last stop for fuel at Helgeson (TWM) followed by a no-hassle customs stop at Piney Pinecreek (48Y), a unique airstrip that straddles the US/Canada border, and then back home.
Flight stats: 3450 miles in 26.4 hours over five days with four stops for fuel.
Some lasting impressions:
The aviation community truly is warm and friendly. We had positive interactions with each one along the way. Every person I contacted for permission graciously granted it, and many went above and beyond by offering meals and/or accommodations.
Doing things outside our comfort zone allows us to experience and see things that simply would not be the case if we just stay with what we have always done.
Time spent planning and researching is well worth the effort. Knowing routes, elevations, dimensions, slopes, and frequencies in advance made the trip not only much safer but also a lot less stressful.
The extra hassle of documenting special events with pictures and video has many benefits. It allows us not only to relive the adventure ourselves but also to share the experience with others, rather than have it fade into our (increasingly) foggy memories.
The Bearhawk Patrol is an amazing aircraft. Not only does it allow safe operations at full gross into and out of small strips at higher altitudes, but it can also cover long distances efficiently. It functions really well as a photo platform with great visibility to both sides and open windows offering the possibility of high resolution photography. Fuel capacity at over five hours endurance is excellent for exploring remote areas and is more than sufficient to outlast most bladder endurance limits.
I hope that this story can serve to encourage other aviators to stretch their wings and horizons by expanding their comfort zones, to see and experience things that are unavailable to our earthbound neighbours, and to share these with others, whether they are other pilots, your friends and family, and anyone else that needs to see what general aviation has to offer.
If you would like to see a video of our trip, it is available on YouTube.

ATV Accident Lawyer Tooele Utah
Over 30,000 people reside in our community and we are prepared to meet the challenges of the of the future. Tooele City, a Utah community, is nestled at the foothills of the Oquirrh Mountains. It is located about 35 miles southwest of Salt Lake City. Even though the origin of the name “Tooele” has been disputed for decades, everyone agrees that we have a rich, colorful history. Four significant eras capsulize the rich history of Tooele City: Tooele was primarily an agricultural community and grew to a population of about 1,200 at the turn of the century. Many of the prominent families who settled Tooele have descendants living in the area. Like their ancestors, these families play an integral role in building our community. Tooele transformed into an industrialized city during the first half of the 20th century and the population increased to 5,000 people by 1930. The transformation was boosted by the construction of railroads and the opening of the International Smelting and Refining Company, east of Tooele. The Tooele Valley Railroad, a seven mile line, ran from the smelter west to the Union Pacific Railroad main line.
youtube
In the eastern section of Tooele, “New Town” was built for many of the 1,000 smelter workers. Families from the Balkans, Italy, Greece, and Asia Minor lived in this area and formed their own community. New Town included its own school, church, culture and numerous languages. Outbreak of World War II brought the establishment of military bases in the area that strengthened the nation’s defense, boosted the local economy, and created a dramatic change in Tooele’s history. Following the attack on Pearl Harbor, a 25,000-acre tract southwest of Tooele was selected as a site where the Tooele Ordnance Depot was built in 1942. A storage depot for chemical weapons was also constructed 20 miles south of Tooele City. These weapons are now being destroyed by incineration at the Deseret Chemical Depot. Tooele’s heritage was further enriched in the 1950s and 1960s as many Hispanic families moved to the area to support the expanding mission of the depot. Men and women of Tooele played vital roles in supporting the soldiers in the field during World War II, the Korean Conflict, Vietnam War, and the Persian Gulf War. The name of the depot has changed from Tooele Ordnance Depot to Tooele Army Depot and most recently TEAD. In 1993, at the end of the Cold War, the depot was designated for “base re-alignment” by the Department of Defense. The TEAD workforce that once reached as many as 5,000 employees has been reduced to about 400 workers today. About 1,700 acres of depot property was annexed into the city. The Army conveyed 40 acres and its multi-million dollar Consolidated Maintenance Facility to Tooele City in 1996.
This building was then sold to Penske Realty of Utah and Detroit Diesel opened a re-manufacturing plant that currently employs about 400 people. In December of 1998, over 1,600 acres of industrial property and buildings were conveyed to Tooele City. The parcel was sold to a developer the Utah Industrial Depot was formed. In 1999, the Utah Industrial Depot attracted 168 new jobs. The Utah Industrial Depot was sold to the Ninigret Group in 2013 and renamed Ninigret Depot. The Ninigret Depot is a premier business park in northern Utah for industry and commerce and is in the process of attracting new private businesses to the area. Tooele, Utah’s estimated population is 35,251 according to the most recent United States census estimates. Tooele, Utah is the 24th largest city in Utah based on official 2017 estimates from the US Census Bureau. The population density is 1463.15 people/mi² (564.92 people/km²). Based on data from the American Community Survey, in 2017 there were 11,314 households in the city, with an average size of 3.09 people per household. Utah and off-roading are practically synonymous. Featuring over 2,800 miles of public land designed for off-roading, there is so much to explore in this state. From Bryce Canyon to Moab, there are plenty of incredible places to discover.

While Utah is an ATV-friendly state, you should still ensure that you understand all of the rules and regulations. Here’s what you need to know. There are 2,800 miles of off-roading trails in Utah. The public lands open to ATV range from state parks to Bureau of Land Management areas. Visit the Utah DNR website for all of the details about where to ride, which includes everything from Gemini Bridges to Casto Canyon to Utah Rims. Wind, water and time have sculptured Tooele County, Utah’s 7,000 square miles into high mountains, deep canyons, broad valleys and endless deserts. Across this vast and geologically diverse terrain are miles of multi-purpose trails that offer exciting and crowd-free adventure for hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking, road cycling and ATV rides. The Tooele County Trails Committee, under the auspices of the Tooele County Commission and the Tooele County Department of Parks and Recreation, has created this website to inform the outdoor enthusiast about eastern Tooele County’s best multi-purpose trails and road cycling routes. The 20 trails and routes on this site represent only a fraction of the available areas in eastern Tooele County. They are listed here because the Tooele County Trails Committee has inventoried each one, determined GPS waypoints, and has installed and maintains trail signage. The trails are also officially recognized by Tooele County as open for the public’s enjoyment. This website is a work-in-progress. As other trails are inventoried, they will be added. A hard copy map of this website is also available and can be found at brochure racks.
ATV Trail Etiquette
Most of the trails featured in this publication are multiple-use, which means users may encounter hikers, horseback riders, mountain bikers or ATV Riders at any time. To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all, please follow these trail etiquette guidelines that have been developed and used by other trail organizations across the U.S. for years.
• Because horses can be easily frightened, hikers, mountain bikers and ATV riders must yield to horseback riders at all times. To properly yield for horseback riders on a narrow trail, stop and move downhill off the trail. A horse in panic will typically run uphill.
youtube
• ATV riders are required to yield to all uphill traffic—not just for horses. ATV riders that meet hikers and mountain bikers coming from the opposite direction, must slow down, pull over, and yield the right-of-way. ATV riders that meet horseback riders coming from the opposite direction are required to stop, turn off their engines, remove their helmets to lessen the horse/s anxiety, and not make any sudden movements.
• Mountain bikers are required to yield to all hikers and horseback riders, and except for ATV riders, yield to all uphill traffic. That means mountain bikers who are descending a trail must yield if they see a hiker, horseback rider or another mountain biker coming up the trail. ATV riders climbing a trail are required to stop and yield to all descending hikers, mountain bikers and horseback riders.
• Hikers descending a trail yield only to other hikers or horseback riders coming up the trail. When hiking in a group, yield to single or pair hikers. Also when hiking in a group, hike in single file.
• ATV riders yield to all hikers, bikers and horses. Bikers yield to all hikers and horses. And hikers yield only for horses, and hikers moving uphill.
• Always be friendly, courteous and respectful to other trail users.
• Regardless of your mode of travel, don’t hike or ride on muddy trails.
• Many of the trails listed on this website have livestock gates. Users are asked to always leave the gate as they found it. But when in doubt, close the gate.
Does homeowners insurance cover theft?
Theft of any kind can be devastating for homeowners. Your home contains not only items with monetary value, but also items with emotional value for you and your family. That’s why having the right homeowners insurance policy is crucial in the unfortunate event of a break-in. If you have just experienced a theft or break-in, contact the police right away to file a report. Then, file a claim with your insurance company as soon as possible.
Does homeowners insurance cover theft from a home?
Typical homeowners (including renters and condominium) policies include coverage for your personal property. Loss due to theft is generally included as part of the personal property protection. This means that if an intruder breaks in and steals valuables from your home or detached structures, your home insurance should cover it. Most policies also include coverage for your property while it is away from the home, subject to limitations. However, the personal property limits are initially set as a percentage of your dwelling coverage, which determines how much your insurance provider can reimburse you for the theft. It’s important to set realistic limits based on the value of the items in your home so you don’t end up with a significant loss. In addition to our standard homeowners’ policy, Nationwide offers optional coverages, like Brand New Belongings, which pays to repair or replace your covered belongings without deduction for depreciation, regardless of age or condition, to provide you with extra protection in the event of theft.
youtube
Does homeowners insurance cover ATV theft?
No, your homeowner’s policy would not cover this. Comprehensive coverage, which is an optional coverage on your auto insurance policy, will cover this loss.
Does homeowners insurance cover theft from an ATV?
Comprehensive insurance will cover costs to the ATV resulting from a break-in, including vehicle repairs. Audio equipment that is permanently installed in your ATV is also covered. As for other valuables stolen from your ATV, your home, condominium insurance or renters’ policy may cover your loss. You should maintain adequate proof of ownership, such as a receipt. Your home, condominium or renters policy deductible will apply to any covered loss and any payments are not made until the deductible is met.
Do I need insurance for my ATV?
Yes.
• State laws differ, but generally speaking, you must have insurance on your ATV if you ride anywhere besides private land • 4-wheelers are NOT fully covered under your homeowner’s insurance plan • There is a wide range of options to choose from when picking your ATV insurance plan • If you race ATVs or use them in business ventures, you need a special type of insurance plan Here are the types of coverage you may want to consider when buying a 4-wheeler: • Bodily Injury and Property Damage Liability: This will cover the cost incurred with damaging property or injuring a person. • Comprehensive & Collision Coverage: This coverage will protect you in the event that your 4-wheeler gets into an accident with another object or vehicle. It takes care of any non-vehicular incidents that caused damage to your 4-wheeler – fire, theft, vandalism, and collision with an animal. • Medical Payments Cover: This is a good type of cover to have because it provides compensation for the medical services given to you after being hurt in a 4-wheeler accident, regardless of who is at fault. • Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage: Again, like car insurance, if you have the unfortunate fate to get into a terrible accident where the other motorist either has minimum coverage or no insurance coverage at all, this type of cover provides you peace of mind that you are covered. • Accessory and/or Safety Apparel Coverage: This protects all electronic equipment and gadgets as well as upgrades installed in your 4-wheeler apart from the factory-installed ones. Also, trailer, covers, helmets, and other safety apparel or accessories related to your 4-wheeler would be covered.
If you race 4-wheelers or ATVs you will need to find a plan that specializes in this sort of use. Due to the added danger and risk associated with racing ATVs, you need to let your insurance agent know about your endeavors in order to receive the proper insurance product. In many states, if you use your 4-wheeler for commercial use, you will need to get commercial coverage that takes these factors into consideration. Regular ATV insurance will not be satisfactory if you give tours, lease out 4-wheelers, or use your ATV for any business endeavor.
ATV Accident Liability
All-terrain vehicles, also known as ATVs, are kinds of vehicles that be driven through all kinds of terrains and surfaces. ATVs, although fun, have a higher center of gravity and a narrow wheel base that creates a high risk of rolling over, even on flat surfaces. This makes the chances of personal injury very high and approximately 75 percent of ATV accidents cause serious long-term damage to the head or spinal cord. Other injuries could include broken bones, crushed limbs and lacerations. In many states, not only is there no minimum age law to ride ATVs, there are no safety helmet laws either. Safety is really important when it comes to having fun on ATVs, but accidents do happen. An ATV accident is one that results in property damage, injury or death. These accidents can occur for many reasons, but with the risk of driving an ATV, most cases are due to the improper handling of the vehicle from the driver. Victims of ATV accidents cannot collect compensation unless they prove the accident occurred through negligence. To show an accident was due to someone else’s negligence, the incident must fall under at least one of the following criteria: • Caused harm to the victim • Caused by another’s carelessness • Was the fault of another Comparative negligence could be a factor if there is more than one person that could be at fault for the accident. In other words, the liability is placed on the person who more than likely caused the incident. If the accident occurred due to a faulty part in the ATV, this could be a case for product liability. Manufacturers and sellers are responsible if they sell a defective product. On the other hand, if one utilizes an ATV for recreational use at an outfitter, the land owners must take precautions to carefully mark land boundaries. These markers should be clearly visible. Unmarked wire and rope boundaries could be fatal to people riding ATVs. If an accident has occurred and there are damages to the ATV, the driver may be responsible for reimbursing the ATV outfitter for the cost of the ATV at its current market value.

If you race 4-wheelers or ATVs you will need to find a plan that specializes in this sort of use. Due to the added danger and risk associated with racing ATVs, you need to let your insurance agent know about your endeavors in order to receive the proper insurance product. In many states, if you use your 4-wheeler for commercial use, you will need to get commercial coverage that takes these factors into consideration. Regular ATV insurance will not be satisfactory if you give tours, lease out 4-wheelers, or use your ATV for any business endeavor.
ATV Accident Liability
All-terrain vehicles, also known as ATVs, are kinds of vehicles that be driven through all kinds of terrains and surfaces. ATVs, although fun, have a higher center of gravity and a narrow wheel base that creates a high risk of rolling over, even on flat surfaces. This makes the chances of personal injury very high and approximately 75 percent of ATV accidents cause serious long-term damage to the head or spinal cord. Other injuries could include broken bones, crushed limbs and lacerations. In many states, not only is there no minimum age law to ride ATVs, there are no safety helmet laws either. Safety is really important when it comes to having fun on ATVs, but accidents do happen. An ATV accident is one that results in property damage, injury or death. These accidents can occur for many reasons, but with the risk of driving an ATV, most cases are due to the improper handling of the vehicle from the driver. Victims of ATV accidents cannot collect compensation unless they prove the accident occurred through negligence. To show an accident was due to someone else’s negligence, the incident must fall under at least one of the following criteria: • Caused harm to the victim • Caused by another’s carelessness • Was the fault of another Comparative negligence could be a factor if there is more than one person that could be at fault for the accident. In other words, the liability is placed on the person who more than likely caused the incident. If the accident occurred due to a faulty part in the ATV, this could be a case for product liability. Manufacturers and sellers are responsible if they sell a defective product. On the other hand, if one utilizes an ATV for recreational use at an outfitter, the land owners must take precautions to carefully mark land boundaries. These markers should be clearly visible. Unmarked wire and rope boundaries could be fatal to people riding ATVs. If an accident has occurred and there are damages to the ATV, the driver may be responsible for reimbursing the ATV outfitter for the cost of the ATV at its current market value.

ATV Accident Lawyer Tooele Utah
Over 30,000 people reside in our community and we are prepared to meet the challenges of the of the future. Tooele City, a Utah community, is nestled at the foothills of the Oquirrh Mountains. It is located about 35 miles southwest of Salt Lake City. Even though the origin of the name “Tooele” has been disputed for decades, everyone agrees that we have a rich, colorful history. Four significant eras capsulize the rich history of Tooele City: Tooele was primarily an agricultural community and grew to a population of about 1,200 at the turn of the century. Many of the prominent families who settled Tooele have descendants living in the area. Like their ancestors, these families play an integral role in building our community. Tooele transformed into an industrialized city during the first half of the 20th century and the population increased to 5,000 people by 1930. The transformation was boosted by the construction of railroads and the opening of the International Smelting and Refining Company, east of Tooele. The Tooele Valley Railroad, a seven mile line, ran from the smelter west to the Union Pacific Railroad main line.

In the eastern section of Tooele, “New Town” was built for many of the 1,000 smelter workers. Families from the Balkans, Italy, Greece, and Asia Minor lived in this area and formed their own community. New Town included its own school, church, culture and numerous languages. Outbreak of World War II brought the establishment of military bases in the area that strengthened the nation’s defense, boosted the local economy, and created a dramatic change in Tooele’s history. Following the attack on Pearl Harbor, a 25,000-acre tract southwest of Tooele was selected as a site where the Tooele Ordnance Depot was built in 1942. A storage depot for chemical weapons was also constructed 20 miles south of Tooele City. These weapons are now being destroyed by incineration at the Deseret Chemical Depot. Tooele’s heritage was further enriched in the 1950s and 1960s as many Hispanic families moved to the area to support the expanding mission of the depot. Men and women of Tooele played vital roles in supporting the soldiers in the field during World War II, the Korean Conflict, Vietnam War, and the Persian Gulf War. The name of the depot has changed from Tooele Ordnance Depot to Tooele Army Depot and most recently TEAD. In 1993, at the end of the Cold War, the depot was designated for “base re-alignment” by the Department of Defense. The TEAD workforce that once reached as many as 5,000 employees has been reduced to about 400 workers today. About 1,700 acres of depot property was annexed into the city. The Army conveyed 40 acres and its multi-million dollar Consolidated Maintenance Facility to Tooele City in 1996.
This building was then sold to Penske Realty of Utah and Detroit Diesel opened a re-manufacturing plant that currently employs about 400 people. In December of 1998, over 1,600 acres of industrial property and buildings were conveyed to Tooele City. The parcel was sold to a developer the Utah Industrial Depot was formed. In 1999, the Utah Industrial Depot attracted 168 new jobs. The Utah Industrial Depot was sold to the Ninigret Group in 2013 and renamed Ninigret Depot. The Ninigret Depot is a premier business park in northern Utah for industry and commerce and is in the process of attracting new private businesses to the area. Tooele, Utah’s estimated population is 35,251 according to the most recent United States census estimates. Tooele, Utah is the 24th largest city in Utah based on official 2017 estimates from the US Census Bureau. The population density is 1463.15 people/mi² (564.92 people/km²). Based on data from the American Community Survey, in 2017 there were 11,314 households in the city, with an average size of 3.09 people per household. Utah and off-roading are practically synonymous. Featuring over 2,800 miles of public land designed for off-roading, there is so much to explore in this state. From Bryce Canyon to Moab, there are plenty of incredible places to discover.

While Utah is an ATV-friendly state, you should still ensure that you understand all of the rules and regulations. Here’s what you need to know. There are 2,800 miles of off-roading trails in Utah. The public lands open to ATV range from state parks to Bureau of Land Management areas. Visit the Utah DNR website for all of the details about where to ride, which includes everything from Gemini Bridges to Casto Canyon to Utah Rims. Wind, water and time have sculptured Tooele County, Utah’s 7,000 square miles into high mountains, deep canyons, broad valleys and endless deserts. Across this vast and geologically diverse terrain are miles of multi-purpose trails that offer exciting and crowd-free adventure for hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking, road cycling and ATV rides. The Tooele County Trails Committee, under the auspices of the Tooele County Commission and the Tooele County Department of Parks and Recreation, has created this website to inform the outdoor enthusiast about eastern Tooele County’s best multi-purpose trails and road cycling routes. The 20 trails and routes on this site represent only a fraction of the available areas in eastern Tooele County. They are listed here because the Tooele County Trails Committee has inventoried each one, determined GPS waypoints, and has installed and maintains trail signage. The trails are also officially recognized by Tooele County as open for the public’s enjoyment. This website is a work-in-progress. As other trails are inventoried, they will be added. A hard copy map of this website is also available and can be found at brochure racks.
ATV Trail Etiquette
Most of the trails featured in this publication are multiple-use, which means users may encounter hikers, horseback riders, mountain bikers or ATV Riders at any time. To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all, please follow these trail etiquette guidelines that have been developed and used by other trail organizations across the U.S. for years.
• Because horses can be easily frightened, hikers, mountain bikers and ATV riders must yield to horseback riders at all times. To properly yield for horseback riders on a narrow trail, stop and move downhill off the trail. A horse in panic will typically run uphill.
youtube
• ATV riders are required to yield to all uphill traffic—not just for horses. ATV riders that meet hikers and mountain bikers coming from the opposite direction, must slow down, pull over, and yield the right-of-way. ATV riders that meet horseback riders coming from the opposite direction are required to stop, turn off their engines, remove their helmets to lessen the horse/s anxiety, and not make any sudden movements.
• Mountain bikers are required to yield to all hikers and horseback riders, and except for ATV riders, yield to all uphill traffic. That means mountain bikers who are descending a trail must yield if they see a hiker, horseback rider or another mountain biker coming up the trail. ATV riders climbing a trail are required to stop and yield to all descending hikers, mountain bikers and horseback riders.
• Hikers descending a trail yield only to other hikers or horseback riders coming up the trail. When hiking in a group, yield to single or pair hikers. Also when hiking in a group, hike in single file.
• ATV riders yield to all hikers, bikers and horses. Bikers yield to all hikers and horses. And hikers yield only for horses, and hikers moving uphill.
• Always be friendly, courteous and respectful to other trail users.
• Regardless of your mode of travel, don’t hike or ride on muddy trails.
• Many of the trails listed on this website have livestock gates. Users are asked to always leave the gate as they found it. But when in doubt, close the gate.
Does homeowners insurance cover theft?
Theft of any kind can be devastating for homeowners. Your home contains not only items with monetary value, but also items with emotional value for you and your family. That’s why having the right homeowners insurance policy is crucial in the unfortunate event of a break-in. If you have just experienced a theft or break-in, contact the police right away to file a report. Then, file a claim with your insurance company as soon as possible.
Does homeowners insurance cover theft from a home?
Typical homeowners (including renters and condominium) policies include coverage for your personal property. Loss due to theft is generally included as part of the personal property protection. This means that if an intruder breaks in and steals valuables from your home or detached structures, your home insurance should cover it. Most policies also include coverage for your property while it is away from the home, subject to limitations. However, the personal property limits are initially set as a percentage of your dwelling coverage, which determines how much your insurance provider can reimburse you for the theft. It’s important to set realistic limits based on the value of the items in your home so you don’t end up with a significant loss. In addition to our standard homeowners’ policy, Nationwide offers optional coverages, like Brand New Belongings, which pays to repair or replace your covered belongings without deduction for depreciation, regardless of age or condition, to provide you with extra protection in the event of theft.

Does homeowners insurance cover ATV theft?
No, your homeowner’s policy would not cover this. Comprehensive coverage, which is an optional coverage on your auto insurance policy, will cover this loss.
Does homeowners insurance cover theft from an ATV?
Comprehensive insurance will cover costs to the ATV resulting from a break-in, including vehicle repairs. Audio equipment that is permanently installed in your ATV is also covered. As for other valuables stolen from your ATV, your home, condominium insurance or renters’ policy may cover your loss. You should maintain adequate proof of ownership, such as a receipt. Your home, condominium or renters policy deductible will apply to any covered loss and any payments are not made until the deductible is met.
Do I need insurance for my ATV?
Yes.
• State laws differ, but generally speaking, you must have insurance on your ATV if you ride anywhere besides private land • 4-wheelers are NOT fully covered under your homeowner’s insurance plan • There is a wide range of options to choose from when picking your ATV insurance plan • If you race ATVs or use them in business ventures, you need a special type of insurance plan Here are the types of coverage you may want to consider when buying a 4-wheeler: • Bodily Injury and Property Damage Liability: This will cover the cost incurred with damaging property or injuring a person. • Comprehensive & Collision Coverage: This coverage will protect you in the event that your 4-wheeler gets into an accident with another object or vehicle. It takes care of any non-vehicular incidents that caused damage to your 4-wheeler – fire, theft, vandalism, and collision with an animal. • Medical Payments Cover: This is a good type of cover to have because it provides compensation for the medical services given to you after being hurt in a 4-wheeler accident, regardless of who is at fault. • Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage: Again, like car insurance, if you have the unfortunate fate to get into a terrible accident where the other motorist either has minimum coverage or no insurance coverage at all, this type of cover provides you peace of mind that you are covered. • Accessory and/or Safety Apparel Coverage: This protects all electronic equipment and gadgets as well as upgrades installed in your 4-wheeler apart from the factory-installed ones.
