Our thanks to Utah Snow Scoop Newspaper and Del Albright for providing us all with such a timely and important reminder that applies all year long! Please remember, the land within Cedar Mountains’ subdivisions is PRIVATE land that is largely surrounded by public land. Attention to these items is your opportunity to act with courtesy to all the others who are also here to enjoy the serenity of the surrounding wilderness, the variety of forest trails, recreational opportunities and special events. They especially apply in or near a wildland interface community such as ours:

BASIC TRAINING FOR LIFE

1. If you open it, CLOSE IT.

2. If you turn it on, TURN IT OFF.

3. If you unlock it, LOCK IT.

4. If you break it, FIX IT.

5. If you can’t fix it, CALL SOMEONE WHO CAN.

6. If you borrow it, RETURN IT.

7. If you use it, TAKE CARE OF IT.

8. If you make a mess, CLEAN IT UP.

9. If you move it, PUT IT BACK.

10. If it belongs to someone else, GET PERMISSION TO USE IT.

11. If you don’t know how to operate it, READ THE DIRECTIONS or DON’T MESS WITH IT.

12. If it doesn’t concern you, DON’T MESS WITH IT.

ADDITIONAL BASIC TRAINING SUGGESTIONS

1. Pack it IN; Pack it OUT.

2. If the area is posted no trespassing; STAY OUT.

3. If the area is posted no hunting; STOP HUNTING, DON’T SHOOT and DON’T POACH.

4. If you’re on a hike and you find trash someone else left behind, Pack it OUT.
