## Resource

Utah’s hit with a dry spell so bad they’ve slapped a temporary ban on target shooting in 16 counties—no hunting, just plinking. Sparks from bullets or exploding targets are igniting dry brush and sparking wildfires. The ban covers all firearms and spark-producing gear. Wildlife officials will check fire risk every two weeks and decide if restrictions stay or lift. If you’re in Beaver, Cache, Carbon, or any of the other 16 counties, hold off on target practice—safety first.
