BLM Leadership Shake-Up: The U.S. Senate confirmed Steve Pearce as head of the Bureau of Land Management in a 46-43 vote, with Colorado Democrats opposing him over past comments about selling public lands—an issue that matters a lot in the West, including Utah’s public-land travel plans. Memorial Day Travel Watch: AAA expects about 45 million Americans to travel for Memorial Day, with road trips dominating—and higher gas prices likely shaping how far families go. Utah Hospitality Buzz: Salt Lake City’s Granary District keeps stacking big-name dining and entertainment, with The Rustic and Bowl & Barrel planned for Silo Park in summer 2027. Provo’s Dirty Soda Boom: More “dirty soda” shops are clustering near BYU, and the trend is still spreading beyond Utah. Health & Tech in Utah: Altitude Lab says its Salt Lake City biotech accelerator has topped $205M in early-stage funding since 2020.
