After 3 decades spent in the sunny (and humid) South Florida media world, Jeff has traveled to across the country to partake in the delights of The Beehive State.

It took rangers hours to clean up the mess left behind after someone set off a blue powder cannon on the pristine red rocks of Snow Canyon State Park in southern Utah.Earlier this week, park officials responded to a report of visitors seeing 'blue' Petrified Dunes and discovered a large area covered in blue powder. It's not known who set off the powder cannon, a device often used on social media for elaborate baby reveals.

To clean the eyesore from the fragile environment, rangers had to hike nearly three miles while hauling more than 24 gallons of water to the site and then spent the next 4-5 hours scrubbing the area clear of the powder.The discovery came weeks after an arrest was made following the vandalism of ancient petroglyphs on the Wire Pass Trail in Kane County.
