Show Cabin fever means spring is on its way By GARY BEST Is winter getting to you? For me cabin fever usually sets in IJortly after New Year's Eve. This ar seems especially bad with tended below average tem-iratures tem-iratures and record snows on the ound. Last week I gave up on ring, which the calendar says is ss than two weeks away, and ove up American Fork Canyon to e what Mother Nature has been to. There is still anywhere from three , si feet of snow piled up along the SlUads with snow on the road in some aces. I was surprised to find most of the uan!e melted off Tibbie Fork Reser-tt'tir. Reser-tt'tir. e Must below Tibbie Fork I noticed a dj,ace with ten foot drifts where iimeone had hollowed out a number ! of snow caves in which to spend the night. I also noticed plenty of empty picnic and camping sites. However, remember when your cabin fever turns to spring fever, the Pleasant Grove Forest Service, says, most of the group sites have already been reserved on weekends through September 21, of this year. The Forest Service started taking reservations in January but there are still a few Saturdays left. The Pleasant Grove Forest Service does a tremendous volume in reserving camping sites for large groups, so if you are interested act now. There are brochures available at the ranger station for selecting a site for your summer outings. Lets hope by that time most of the snow and ice has melted. |
