The Benefits Of Being Outdoors

Have you ever wondered why those outdoorsy people are so happy? They seem so calm and carefree while the rest of us are busy cramming in the last 15 minutes of lunch and hurrying back to work or running to the next thing on our list. We are a busy society.

Some of our crew will, once again, be at the Ironman...

Here are some tips for handling the wind here in Hurricane, Utah. First, know before you go. A lot of lake-lovers out there just check the temperature and precipitation in the forecast.
