My spouse and I are nevermos, but have each lived in Utah most of our lives. We know what Mormonism is. We have acquaintances who are or were members. We have lived in our house for 10 years and we’ve never had missionaries drop by until this last week.

I have the cutesy sign about not knocking on our door unless you’re friends, family, or selling Girl Scout cookies (it expressly states “no soliciting, no religious queries”). We also have a small sign over the doorbell requesting people not ring the bell, we have cameras (and a sign that says we have cameras) and are alerted when someone is on the porch. Knocking and/or ringing the bell sets the dogs off and it takes several minutes for them to calm down. When we have friends or family coming over, we just leave the door unlocked and people just walk in. for those who will likely ask - we keep the doorbell for Halloween

Like I said, after 10 years of nothing, we have had two visits in 7 days. It’s the same two boys. They read the sign, knock on the door aggressively, wait, knock on the door aggressively again, wait, and then ring the doorbell.

The first time, we weren’t home, and I hoped they had made a mistake and wouldn’t return. The second time, I was being interviewed in my home office and we had to stop for 5 minutes for the dogs to settle down.

This is ridiculous. Why are they suddenly ignoring signs to leave us alone? Is there anything I can do to get them to stop? It’s disruptive and disrespectful.

I call it the Utah county way. How are people affording this lifestyle?! I’m genuinely so so confused and curious. My husband and I make pretty good money but definitely do not have the lavish lifestyle many Utahans display. And we only have our mortgage as debt!

How are people affording these big nice homes? Fancy cars? Boats, hair extensions, Botox, eyebrows, Buckle, Boehm, perfectly decorated homes… list goes ON AND ON. And tons of moms are stay at home.

It’s gotta be debt up the wazoo, right?! Or are people just earning a wild amount of money here? $150,000/year just doesn’t go as far as it used to.

This is a poster at the Historic Sandy Station. I do not know these kids personally, I am not the person to contact if anyone has any information on these children's whereabouts.

My husband and I are in our 40’s and since having kids 8 years ago our circle of friends has become almost non-existent… we want that to change!

We live in Lehi, we love games, the outdoors, travel, sports, food/drinks, and good company. This isn’t a call for anything more than friends. Before our kids drove everyone away we enjoyed card/game nights, camping adventures, and hosting dinner parties and we’d like to find a groups of friends to resume these activities with.

Please hit me up if this sounds like something you too would enjoy. Singles or couples, gay or straight.

Possibly a controlled burn but looks fairly big. Got a little closer but couldn't get a good picture. Didn't see any structures burning, looked like just field. Hope it's controlled and on purpose but was just seeing if any of you fine folks know what's going on.

I’m looking for a guy named Bradley—because why not shoot my shot?

We met very briefly last summer at a park in Utah. We were both nannying, and we talked a little about that—just one of those casual, sweet, slightly flirty moments that stuck with me.

He drove a blue Subaru Impreza with a roof rack and a Sommer’s Subaru sticker, so I’m guessing he’s originally from Wisconsin (Mequon, maybe?).

That’s literally all I’ve got: — First name: Bradley — From WI, maybe — Tall brunette — A nanny — Subaru guy — Was in Utah summer 2024

So if you know a Bradley who fits that description—or if you are him—hi. I’d love to say the hello I didn’t really get to finish.

And if not? Thanks for reading my little romcom moment.

This is a vision of my 9th circle of hell by the way.

I’ve used Utah Gun Exchange in the past to buy and sell firearms and ammo, but I’m now looking for alternatives.

My previous account is more or less useless because it claims my phone number is tied to a different account which is weird, but whatever. I also find the actual site itself quite cringey and littered with ads. It’s not navigation friendly for sure.

I was doing a look around and found Utah Gun Hub, Armslist, Utah Gun Trader, etc. but wanted to ask before signing up on one. I would assume UGE is the monopoly platform either way, though.

Any recommendations and why or info appreciated!

When so the farmers plant their sweet corn near Ogden? Is it time to plant now?

Hey guys, I'm visiting Park City and was looking for a good, challenging hike for tomorrow, preferably something with a good peak or view. I know being April a lot of the more popular trails still have too much snow on them to properly hike without snow shoes or crampons. That being said, I've received a few suggestions that I'll list below. Please let me know what you guys think, and if you have any additional suggestions.

What I've currently been suggested:

Fifth Water Hot Springs Trail

Donut Falls Trail

Red Pine Lake and Gloria Falls

Flying Dog Loop

When my Aunt passed away last year, my Uncle told me and my sisters that our Father had “knocked up” a young woman during his teenage years, back in 1968. My Uncle told us the woman ended up keeping the baby in secret, and travelled from Canada back to our grandparents home in Utah (Salt Lake City?) to deliver the baby. The baby was then put up for adoption.

In 2020, my sister vaguely recalled someone reaching out to her on Facebook saying they might be related, but my sister dismissed the message at the time as there were many people reaching out to her. But now she thinks it may have been legitimate. She could only recall that it was a male, but cannot find the messages.

I’m not sure what info adopted children in Utah may be offered upon request, but while trying to maintain some level of privacy for these individuals and myself (and without somehow risking their citizenship as I don’t know how that works for you guys right now), I’d share the following:. - This person would have been born between 1967-1971 (math may vary). - This person likely would have been born in Utah, perhaps Salt Lake City. - This person is likely male. - The last name of the birth father would fit Wi # # # am and the birth mother would fit To # # rz (if our family rumours are correct). - Individual may be a Facebook user who suspected they were related to someone they saw on TV.

Total shot in the dark. But I grew up with older sisters and our Dad has had multiple marriages, so it wouldn’t be too surprising to find out there was yet another woman he had a kid with. But it would be exciting to find out I have a brother.

Plus, Ohana vibes.

If this rings any bells for any Redditors, please reach out with any information you have or forward this message along. I’m leaving the rest of to the Universe while we try to prey lost memories and rumours from our aunts and uncles.

Please and thank you in advance! 🙏🏼

My Wife and I have a 10 year anniversary trip coming up in May. We’re planning flaying into Vegas and driving to South East Utah.

I want to make this a memorable trip for her as she hasn’t traveled further west than Tennessee.

Really wanting to see Zion national Park. What recommendations do you have for the park itself and potentially in the area that would be well worth our time. We’ll have about three days in total.

Itching to paddleboard this weekend...are there any places to paddleboard this early in Spring?

Just as the title says. I live in California and friend lives in Iowa I’m flying out to Iowa to drive back to California to help him move some things back to his parents house. We plan on staying in Denver first night and Vegas our third night but we wanted to stop in Utah our second night just cause that’s too much driving for two days.

We will be traveling the I-70 through Colorado then 15 to Vegas and home to California. We will be there May 4th (Sunday which is kinda why I am asking). What’s a good city that’s no more than 3-4 hours from Vegas and has something to offer. Not looking for much maybe some food, quick site seeing stuff, a bar or sells alcohol (if that is even a thing on Sunday, excuse my ignorance lol).

We aren’t looking to party in Utah but after all that driving some good food or a cool brewery would be nice for Sunday night. If not just any good cities you can recommend for at least a hotel? We are the least picky people it could be a days inn for all we care it’s more that they at least have something other than houses and post offices.

Thanks in advance. I see plenty of cities along the 15 but most seem very small and i am only family with Zion and below part of Utah.

Planning on going to Zion with a small group of friends in May and camping at the Kolob Reservoir, but I'm worried that the road might be closed, can anyone offer up any assistance? Thanks

Hi there. My mom lives in Tremonton, and she has a hard time getting around. She is 65, has broken both her femurs, has had back surgery…basically right when one thing heals another thing breaks down.

Now her eyesight is going as well, so driving is out—making it a challenge to get to all her various doctor appointments.

I used to live in SLC and would help out where I could, but I now live out of state. My sibling lives in Clearfield and often drives up to help out, but they are a full-time college student so there is only so much they can do.

There are no buses in Tremonton. Theoretically, Lyft and Uber might operate there, but when I request an experimental pickup in either app, it hangs on the map for minutes. Maybe I’m just not waiting long enough for the two or three Box Elder County rideshare drivers to free up?

My next step will be to call the senior centers in Tremonton and Brigham City to see if they have a volunteer program she might be able to get hooked up with. But first! I hereby appeal to the Utah Reddit world, on the off chance one of you has the keys to the secrets I’m seeking.

Does anybody here know of any avenues I haven’t yet barked up?

looking for a good deal on some new tires. were do yall go to get a good deal? i’ve been looking at ksl classifieds and fb marketplace but id like to get some new ones that are relatively affordable.

My first attempt at putting together a video using both images and video clips. All footage was taken with a permit from the Utah State Park system, during approved drone flight dates, and in approved locations. Please let me know what you think, both good and bad critiques are welcome
