Parachute Cord In New Colors

My friends at ParacordGalaxy.com have just received a shipment of new parachute cord (paracord) in new colors and are working to get the products posted to their website.

They always have an excellent selection of 550 cord - the most variety of any company I have seen. And their prices are always low - usually the lowest around.

It is fun seeing them bring in new product. Paracord is so usuful, I always keep it in my emergency kit and many friends use it for survival bracelets and many craft projects.

Ice Fishing Finally Begins At Strawberry Reservoir

Utah has had unusually warm and dry weather this winter and that has really messed up ice fishing. There have only been a few waters with fishable ice and they have been getting pounded.

But, finally, Strawberry is capped and has safe ice in most bays. There may still be thin, dangerous ice in some spots so always be careful.

Mud Creek was the first area we heard of offering safe fishing and it has been going for a couple weeks. The Soldier Creek side was next and now we hear The Meadows area is safe.

With little snow, people have been able to drive to more access spots than normal this year, but that could change this weekend. Snow is expected Tomorrow (January 6, 2018) and more next week.

The weekend storm is expected to be relatively warm and so we will have to judge what it does to ice conditions. Normally, I would expect good solid ice over the entire reservoir within a few days.

I would not put a snomobile on the ice yet. Wait until the storm ends and then test ice conditions.
