Dig It! - Edible Flowers (posted 2/7/10)
Sage & Snow Garden Club
Despite the beauty of the flower, they also offer a practical side- many are edible! The culinary use of flowers dates back thousands of years with the first recorded mention being in 140 B.C. Many cultures utilize flowers in their cuisine- European, Asian, East Indian, Victorian English, Middle Eastern, even Early American settlers. Chartreuse, a classic green liqueur developed in France in the seventeenth century, boasts carnation petals as one of its secret ingredients. Recently, there has been a renewed interest in edible flowers. It is very easy to incorporate edible flowers into any menu, making it not only delicious but also visually pleasing. Any day can seem like a special occasion!
Wow your friends with these flower facts: Pollen in many flowers is rich in vitamins and minerals. Roses, rosehips, marigolds, and nasturtiums are loaded with vitamin C. Dandelion blossoms are high in vitamin A and C and leaves are also high in iron, calcium, and phosphorous. Most blossoms are low in calories. Artichokes and broccoli are actually flower buds.

Mike Kaul’s Fishing Report (posted 2/7/10)
From Two Rivers Emporium
With morning temperatures here in Pinedale in the single digits it is time to wrap-up this fly fishing season and start thinking about next year. We had great moisture in 2009 that really helped increase our water flows, which contributes to increased fish propagation. Higher water levels also present the angler with opportunities to encounter trout in more locations on our many fine streams. This situation delights the consummate fly fisher who enjoys the challenge and reward of fishing all the water. I am very excited about our fly fishing prospects for the 2010 season. There is still a good amount of snow in the Wyoming Range and the Wind River Mountains, so if we just have an average winter we should have excellent water conditions next summer. In addition to our float trips on the Green and New Fork Rivers, we will again feature walk/wade fishing excursions on our seven private lease fishing venues. These private ranch properties are very popular with our clientele because they have the site all to themselves for the whole day. We strive to rest and rotate the beats on the streams so our customers will encounter fresh trout when they hit these waters. A new fishing opportunity will be available next season which takes advantage of some great still-water fishing action on our fine lakes in the Pinedale area. This fishing is actually the best early in the season, late May and through the month of June. Those of you who want to visit us early will have these excellent fishing opportunities. Contact us for more details. Some of you may want to participate in the Wyoming Cutt-Slam. We can provide you an opportunity to fish for three of the four sub-species of cutthroat required to complete the Slam.
Two Rivers Emporium is affiliated with beautiful Half Moon Lake Resort, located a short distance from Pinedale. We will put a fishing package together for you that include deluxe accommodations at this pristine facility at very reasonable rates. We also have reciprocal agreements with Lakeside Lodge and Jackson Fork Lodge. Our goal is to make your visit with us hassle free and enjoyable. We work very hard at this and were gratified to be acknowledged for our efforts by being selected as Orvis Endorsed Fly Fishing Outfitter of the Year for 2008. You can be assured we will continue our high standard of service and strive to make it even better. In this regard, those of you that are thinking about fishing with us next season, particularly those that want to fish on the high demand private leases, should make your plans as early as possible to secure your dates. As an incentive to plan early we will give you 10% off one float fishing trip or 5% off one private lease walk/wade trip for next season if your 50% deposit is received prior to February 28, 2010. Please check our web site for additional information about our services. www.2rivers.net. (1/23/10)

Rideshare, linking riders with drivers for trips (posted 2/6/10)
Mindi Crabb
Rideshare, a free community based service linking potential riders with drivers for trips around the region officially launched its new website on Monday, February 1, 2010. This online resource is the idea of Robyn & Alan Blackburn, owners of local transportation company Sublink Stage.
Currently Sublink Stage operates 14 and 24 seat passenger vehicles, and offers a charter service to any location within a 300 mile radius from Pinedale. The company frequently receives calls from individuals looking for rides to Salt Lake City, Jackson or Rock Springs from people needing to catch flights or buses, go shopping or get to medical appointments and who would prefer not to pay a taxi rate. After trying for four years to offer a regularly scheduled service to Salt Lake, the Blackburns know that there isn’t enough ridership for an unsubsidized service, but that there are still significant numbers of people looking for a way to make the trip.
They will be hosting the Sublink Stage Rideshare website as a community service.
Similar programs have been successful around the country as citizens realize the benefits of sharing costs, reducing emissions, and enjoying a rider’s company on the relatively long drives common in our region, whether to an airport, fitness class, local event or even the daily commute between Pinedale and Big Piney.
Please visit the site at www.sublinkstage.com to check out the easy to use format and learn more about ridesharing benefits and safety tips. Registered users will have the chance to win random prizes including gas vouchers and Rock Rabbit coffee coupons.

Pinedale Nordic Ski Grooming Report, February 5 (posted 2/5/10)
Bob Barrett, Pinedale Ski Education Foundation
Halfway through the winter, less than half of the designated 17-mile Nordic ski trail system is in service. Our "temporary" grooming of the upper 4 1/2 miles (7.2 km) of Skyline Drive to Elkhart Park may continue all season if more snow doesn’t arrive on the lower designated trails. Skyline is groomed every few days but the thin snowpack on the lower trails has prevented the start of a regular grooming schedule.
The meadow at Surveyor Park, including Moose Ridge, is skiing well except for a menacing ice spring at the Moose Ridge intersection. The Tree Loop and Flat Line are either ungroomed or unsafe for skating.
Kelly Park and the Old Road Trail from Halfmoon Overlook up to White Pine are groomed but coverage is thin in spots. We are unable to groom the tie-in trail from Kelly Park up to the Old Road Trail intersection and the tie-in over to Halfmoon Overlook is track-compacted but remains hazardous.
The CCC Ponds Pathway is groomed for 1 1/4 miles (2 km) from the south parking lot to the warming hut and then to Fremont Lake Road.
