It's Almost September already???
 Wow!! What happened to the summer? Things got so crazy that we didn't manage to get out the July edition of the progress. As you might imagine summer in Marysvale is when it all happens and unfortunately there just wasn't enough of me to get the July Edition put together. We are over the hump now so we should be gettting lots of great stuff out in the upcoming editions.
Sincerely,
Darin Bushman

Miners Park
If you haven't been to Miners Park at the head of Pine Creek it's time to take a trip.
  
The Miners' Park Historical Trail
begins in front of the wooden mine car. The trail continues to climb
into the trees. For .25 mile, the trail goes past 16 displays of mining
equipment, reconstructed workings and a refurbished cabin. There is a
picnic area across the road from the Miners' Park, complete with tables
and fire rings. Please pack out all that you bring in.
For a scenic walk, a 2 mile round-trip trail begins at the bridge below
the Bully Boy Mill. This trail follows the north side of the creek to an
overlook above the Bullion Canyon water falls. These 60 foot falls are
especially spectacular in the early summer when runoff swells the volume
of the creek.
For those who enjoy touring by auto, turn right onto Forest Road 126
by the Bully Boy Mill. This 10 mile journey will take you near the
11,500 foot summit of Mt. Brigham and down through Cottonwood Canyon to
U.S. Highway 89 just south of Marysvale. Be assured, the scenery is
breathtaking. The road to Cottonwood Canyon is generally free of snow
from mid-July to mid-November. The road tends to be rough in spots and
higher clearance vehicles are recommended.

Jamboree a Huge Success:
The second annual UTV Jamboree was a huge success! With over 800 Attendees and Over 30 Vendors the Jamboree went off without injury or accident. The Jamboree boasted daily trail rides on the beautiful Paiute Trail, Daily entertainment, and great food.
The Jamboree attracted large vendors like Can-AM and Yamaha who offered demo rides on their equipment on a demo track built specifically for the event.
The Jamboree also had several competitive events like barrel racing, pole bending, drag racing, and the Kind of the Trail obstacle course challenge. Ricochet Offroad and MCX USA came through with some great prizes for these events. And last but not least was the impromptu Belly Flop Contest in our Mud Pit sponsored by South Forty RV Park and Lizzie and Charlies RV Park
Side X Side Customs and PDS Fabrication also sponsored a Show N Shine where they put up over $500 in cash prizes.
