A Quebec amateur astronomer was scouting a campsite using satellite imagery in 2024 when he spotted a 25-kilometre ring around Lake Marsal, and geologists who reached it by floatplane the following year found shatter cones confirming a roughly 390-million-year-old impact structure now provisionally named Uhackatik

Young fish are dropped from a small airplane over Utah's mountain lakes, poured out of one tank divided into seven chambers so the fish fall the last stretch through open air. More than 300 lakes inaccessible by vehicle are stocked this way each year, a practice Utah has used since 1956.
