Introduction:
The weekend is upon us, and it appears that the recent rain and snow have cleared up, promising a tranquil weekend ahead. This is perfect timing because there's a lot happening in Fremont County!
Eclipse Viewing:
On Saturday morning, there's a great opportunity to witness an eclipse. While there might be a few clouds, with proper eye protection, you can safely view the 70-80% sun coverage. Remember, never look directly at the eclipse without eclipse glasses. Sinks Canyon State Park is hosting an eclipse viewing party and has 50 pairs of eclipse glasses for visitors.
