Actually, Dean is the one who gave me the page. He said that he already had too many pages to take care of and that he thought I should have the Deseret Peak page instead.
I like the fact that you are so informitive of the lesser known Utah mountains. Excluding the fact that this is a Utah county high point.I think that this page is great.Good job!
Funny, I was just browsing this morning, and I ran across your comment from Sept 2005. Sorry, i didn't notice it before. That picture with the snake was taken on the lower portion of Mt Olympus. Big boy too! Awesome hike! Thats cool your in Roy too. I live west of Midland Drive, almost Hooper.
Do I detect some humor over how to pronounce Tooele?
My father transferred there from Washington. He worked
at the Tooele Army Depot. He told me a lot of the new
people to this area call it "TOO-HILLY." Why? Because of
all the hills north of town, I guess. I always called it
TWO-ELLA, because that's what the natives called it.
Thanks Larry, I think TOO-HILLY would be a cool name. Tooele is an odd name for a city but it isn’t the weirdest in Utah. I thought you might like this video.
for the recent votes. Do you know anything about those tree
orchids growing in SE Asia?? My wife took a couple of photos
when she was in the Philippines, and I don't want to post them
until I find out the name.
I think Utah has an awesome state flag, and I like the way
they included the beehive. But, is anybody in Utah upset over
what's happening to honey bees? They seem to be disappearing.
Personally, I enjoy eating ice cream, and seems the 'low tally'
of bees is effecting the ice cream industry as well! Please,
take a peek at THIS. - Have a nice weekend. -LARRY
Thanks Larry. I wish I knew more about flowers and plants and what they were all named. I’m still learning to identify flora in the Rocky Mountains so I probably can’t help with that.
Of course they included the beehive on the Utah flag... we’re the Beehive State. I read your article and heard about the disappearing bees on the news. I’m sure many people are worried about this. Bees not only produce honey but help pollinate our plants.
I think a lot of Utahns would be upset if Jello disappeared. I mean, how would people live without it!
