From the DEC/JAN Zephyr: “Chasing the Uranium Dream–Moab in 1955, Remembered”…by Brett Huelen

An excerpt:

We moved to Moab in 1955–chasing the uranium dream with a brand new 1955 Dodge Power Wagon, pulling a 24′ Boles Aero travel trailer and a 1951 Willys CJ3 with a little military jeep trailer.  We initially prospected in the Circle Cliffs area where my Mother discovered a small deposit of carnitite.  She was using a Geiger Counter or scintillator and watched the needle practically bend in two when it pegged out!
