Ditch Clutter

If you are trimming bushes and cutting branches along the roads, please throw the debris off the road or onto the hillside and not in our culverts and ditches along the roads. Debris in our culverts and ditches will create problems with rain and in the fall.

DNR Recommendations

We spoke with DNR and unfortunately, they do not have enough employees to provide chipping again this year. We are looking into viable solutions. In the meantime please make sure your wood piles are NOT blocking any culverts.

Also, if you are in need of firewood, please help out by taking wood piled by the road. DO NOT venture into the property but restrict yourself to the wood by the road.

We will keep you posted on a solution to the wood chipping in the fall.

Bear Awareness – Update

Jess Hofberger, BSR President, talked with DWR yesterday (7/6/2023) and they asked us to post the following information.

  1. Please keep all trash inside or secured in an inaccessible location.
  2. Please remove sweet or fatty birdseed at night or completely for the next few weeks
  3. Be bear-aware. See the following website for more information: https://www.wildawareutah.org/

DWR believes that any bear in the area will leave in the next couple weeks, if their “easy” food sources are removed. Please report bear sightings at 801.538.4700, only in the following circumstances:

  1. If a bear is found or seen on your deck.
  2. If a bear does NOT move off after seeing people.
  3. If a bear advances towards people.

If the issue doesn’t resolve itself in the next couple weeks, the situation will be reevaluated.

TRESSPASSER ALERT!

Does anyone know this person? He was caught on camera coming out from under a cabin deck in the upper Escalante area. He was using trekking poles. No idea why he would be that far in the property and why he is under someone’s cabin! If you have any information, please send an email to beaverspringsranchassoc@gmail.com. Thanks!
