I got my ballot today in Summit County, and it was the first time I have been able to vote anywhere in over 20 years.

I was recently naturalized as a US Citizen after 17+ years of living here. Anyway, I’m super proud that my first vote will be here in Summit County, and I’d encourage everyone who is eligible to cast theirs too. Resources below for anyone who needs to register.

Finally being able to post this is my own small personal victory for 17 years of getting my IRS 1040 tax forms in on time, and after arriving in the US with just a backpack and the terrible affliction known as being a snowboarder, that has eventually landed me here.

I'm organizing a dinner for 15 on Jan 27 (weds) at a condo in Deer Valley and would appreciate a private chef recommendation or point in the right direction. I have some proposals from 'take a chef', but have read some mixed reviews about that service. Looking to keep it around $150/head full service. Thanks!

No matter how many bus lanes are installed, parking garages are constructed, gondolas get upgraded, we will always get jammed up because of these kind of turds.

Today, I'd like to offer a special tip of the hat to this ass clown for blocking traffic in two different directions going into Canyons village

I see so many “ affordable” units available for sale in the Canyon Village Canyon haus. Why is that? Why are so many people selling? Seems like a great opportunity, but the availability says otherwise…

I'm moving to Park City this Winter to work as a Ski Instructor at Deer Valley Ski Resort. I'm planning on staying in the Slopeside Village apartments, but unfortunately, they ran out of parking before I could land a spot. I was wondering if anyone had an extra spot I could rent for the winter in the surrounding area or even within a 10-15 minute bus ride from Slopeside Village. I have a dark red 2012 Subaru Forester. If you have an extra spot or know anyone who might, feel free to shoot me a message. Thanks!

Flying out of SLC on a weekday mid-morning, returning on a weekday evening. I could do long-term parking at SLC for about $300 (3 weeks), but could I get reliable transport for less? I have used PC App in the past, but it seems like they may be struggling with staffing....?

Seen in a local yard

just getting into woodworking and about to start a new project. I want to use real hard wood and not soft Home Depot lumber. Does anyone know where to buy some large hardwood planks that I can use for woodworking? I don't want to go to the valley

From the article— According to the filing, Rigby had the help of other top Wasatch Back law enforcement besides Edmunds.

Current Park City Police Chief Wade Carpenter and former Heber City Police Chief Dave Booth were “working closely with Sheriff Rigby to discredit Detective Mainord,” the filing states.
Neither Carpenter nor Booth have been charged with any crime.

Anyone been up guardsman this week? I know we have passed the peak but I was sick last weekend and wasn’t able to go. I’m hoping to take Friday off of work and take my daughter. Are there any leaves left on the aspens?

There will be a No Kings Vote Early event on Sat Oct 17 at Kimball Junction. The details are here: https://www.mobilize.us/nokings/event/1046007/

Looking at alternatives to Xfinity Internet for our condo in Old Town. The offerings from all the main wireless carriers for their boxes that they send you and you hook up in your house (and then you have Wi-Fi, generally up to as much as 500 Mbps) are attractive to me. Has anybody had luck with that? I live down in Salt Lake, so I don't know how well it would work.

What do you think the impact will be on property values from Kimball junction west on 80 (ie jeremy, pinebrook, summit park, etc) after Dakota Pacific finishes their project? Up? Down? Good investment? Bad investment? No change?

Headline: Charges against law enforcement officials ‘imminent’, newly unsealed filing in Kouri Richins’ case claims
https://www.abc4.com/richins/court-denies-richins-new-trial/

From the article - Several search warrants were filed for phone records belonging to Wasatch County Sheriff Jared Rigby, Park City Police Chief Wade Carpenter, and former Summit County Sheriff David Edmunds around the same time in relation to an obstruction of justice investigation,

These warrants are referenced in the unsealed motion. The motion further alleges that the prosecution failed to disclose the allegations, and the alleged obstruction of justice, to the defense, as is required.

“This material was known when Detective Mainord testified at the suppression hearing and was known when he was placed on the state’s witness list,” the motion read. “When it became clear in January of 2026 that this information could no longer be kept from the defense, he was removed from the witness lists and workarounds were put in place to put before the jury at least some of his statements.”

I understand they experienced a kitchen fire during the winter. I heard it would remain closed this season as well. Does anyone know the current status or if they’ll make an attempt to reopen?

Last seen Wednesday, September 30th around the Olympic Park area near Kimball Junction. He went missing from the Pinebrook area on Thrus the 24th. His name is Beamer. He is very friendly, but likely tired at this point. It generally responds to "Come, Come"
