THE CASE OF THE MISSING TROUT: 7 OF 10 ARE MIA Want a progress report on where the missing trout are? Lorraine D. Avenetti, with the Arizona Game & Fish Department Research Branch and a wildlife technician will provide a preliminary report to the Payson Flycasters and Gila Trout Unlimited Chapter 530 at the monthly meeting at 9 a.m., Saturday, March 28 at Tiny’s Restaurant, 600 E. Hwy. 260. In some streams, many of the AGFD stocked trout are unaccounted for. AGFD wants to know where they are going and has instituted a major study to evaluate the fate of stocked Apache and rainbow trout. One of the tools used in the study is radio tagging the fish to track movement and persistence in a stream after being stocked. Fishing in Arizona is big business. The AGFD fish stocking program comprises over one-third of Arizona’s $1.3 billion fishing industry. That’s license dollars and tourist dollars that help the statewide and various local economies. The missing trout detectives are working diligently to discover the fate of stocked trout in the streams in Arizona. Angler catch rates are largely driven by the number of fish in the stream at any given time which is often supported by hatchery supplementation. What exactly happens after they are stocked is somewhat of a mystery. Researchers are investigating three possible fates of their stocked trout. Some may die through natural mortality (poor water quality, low oxygen, lack of food, bird or mammal predation), others through fishing mortality (they are harvested or caught and released and later die due to hooking mortality), and others may simply move out of their stocking locations. Researchers will be conducting a variety of surveys both on the fish and the anglers through angler interviews. The study is to run through 2016 and in the end researchers hope to optimize stocking strategies to maximize angler catch rates. Streams involved in the study are East Verde River, Tonto and Canyon creeks, up in the White Mountains, East Fork Black River, Little Colorado River (Greer and Sheep’s Crossing), and Silver Creek.

Half-a-dozen cruise lines are scheduled to use L.A. for homeport operations at some point during the year. These lines include: Costa, Crystal, Cunard, NCL, Oceania, Princess, Royal Caribbean and Silverseas Cruises. Princess has the most ships — eight — sailing out of the port this year, followed by NCL with four. In addition to Mexican Riviera cruises, itineraries out of L.A. include westbound sailings to Hawaii as well as round trips of 15-day-plus voyages to the South Pacific, Alaska, Panama Canal
transits between L.A. and the East Coast or Caribbean as well as increasingly popular sailings along the West Coast — something we did with the family last year on Princess. There are new wine-themed cruises out of L.A. on Princess this year that may be of interest to you. The area immediately surrounding the World Cruise Center has been extensively developed for the enjoyment of arriving and departing cruise passengers. The Gateway Plaza Fanfare Fountains & Water Feature with reflecting pool welcomes visitors. The nearby USS Iowa is now a museum operated by the Pacific Battleship Center and is located at berth 87. The vessel was commissioned in
1943 and took part in every major military conflict from World War II until the post-Cold War period when she was decommissioned in 1990. There is a fine selection of hotels and motels in the city of San Pedro where the actual cruise terminals are located, along with other sights of interest and a good selection of restaurants. For more information, log on to www.discoverlosangeles.com or call 213-624-7300. Soon — perhaps this year — will be the time for us to take a round-trip cruise from L.A. to Hawaii with plenty of time to enjoy days at sea on a balcony overlooking the blue Pacific Ocean. Sound great? I think so!

RIM HISTORY RIM HISTORY BACK WHEN | STAN BROWN
CHARACTERS UNDER THE RIM CHAPTER 15: THE FULLERS OF PINE, PART 1
Attempting to account for all the Fuller families who settled on Pine Creek is a challenge both for genealogists and historians, but the story is so significant it is worth a try. It all started with Elijah; that is Elijah Knapp Fuller, the patriarch of the family. He was a devout Mormon who came to Utah from New York State by way of Nauvoo, Ill. In the custom of that time he was a polygamist, marrying six wives over a number of years. Fuller’s first wife was Harriet who died in 1845, but not before she had given birth to seven children. His second wife was Catherine. They married in 1846 and had five children before they were divorced after 10 years. She remarried and remained with her children in Utah. Elijah Fuller’s third wife was Sarah Ann, called “Sally.” They were married in 1850 and had one child. She would remain in Utah with her one child until she died in 1897. The patriarch took a fourth wife in 1851. She was Ellen Celeste Woodward, and they would have 11 children. His fifth wife, Elizabeth, died a few days after giving birth to her only child in 1865. The next year, in 1866, he took a sixth wife, Harriet Alice Walker, and they would have eight children. So there were 33 children in all who would call Elijah Knapp Fuller “father,” a challenging task for any historian to sort out. This extended family located in St. George, Utah, and Ellen with her husband became partners in several missions for the church in Utah and Nevada. Then in 1876, the elders of the Mormon Church in Joseph City, Ariz., sent a contingent of men to scout the region between the Mogollon Rim and the Salt River for a

[4] Meanwhile, Elijah Fuller had decided to take his ministry to the new settlement in Arizona where some of his sons were already settled with their families. In addition to the Mazatzal City families, there were three sons by his fourth wife Ellen. They were David, John Hyram (“Hy”) and James Fuller. Ellen elected to go also because of her discontent with life in Utah and her children there. However, before the move could take place Elijah broke his hip in a farm accident and was not able to move to Arizona before he died. Ellen determined to make the move anyway, but first took a trip to Massachusetts to visit friends and relatives, taking her youngest daughter Edith along with her. Upon returning home to St. George she packed the rest of her family and moved to Pine. It was the spring of 1880. [1] The missionaries were John Bushman, Pleasant Bradford, William C.

Contributed photos
The Rim Country seems ready made for a grand romp with your dog as these photos from readers can attest — Toby, at left, owned by Deb and Ed Rusin is master of his universe, while Marcy Bryan’s Sweetie seems to be just daring mom to look away for a second so she can scamper after an adventure.
LET THE DOGS OUT!
Readers share favorite spots to hike with canine companions
Where are the best places in Rim Country to hike with a dog? Never has a Roundup Facebook post resulted in so many comments from readers. Charlie Okander said he likes to hike between the North Woods condos and East Tyler Parkway, climbing the hills for great views of Payson. Lara Lee “Foofoo” Sullivan of Christopher Creek said her tiny pup Jett loves to run along the Forest Service roads, especially one near Black Canyon Lake. Deb Rusin of Pine said her husband Ed and their dog Toby are inseparable hikers. “It’s amazing to see how close they have become in the short three years that we have had Toby,” she said. “Toby’s love for the outdoors is almost as strong as his love for my husband.” Chad Hummer says he takes Burt, his 6-year-old German Shorthair Pointer on the Boulders Loop Trail and the Barnhardt Trail. Jessica Newcomer takes her dog Arizona to the top of the Mogollon Rim. Newcomer said she named the black dog Oregon, but once she moved to Arizona, renamed her. Jonnie Geen said she takes her border collie Nitro anywhere there is water, including Woods Canyon Lake. Mary Williams likes to hike at the end of Phoenix Street, Shawna Daniels near Washington Park and Bill Gibson, along the Deer Creek Trail.
TOP 10 HIKES TO TAKE WITH YOUR DOG 1. Boulders Loop Trail: 2.4-mile loop, access at the end of Phoenix Street. 2. Barnhardt Trail: 8.4 miles round trip. With two seasonal waterfalls, the Barnhardt Trail is a great place to let your dogs get wet. The trailhead is four miles north of the State Route 188 and Beeline Highway junction, down Forest Road 419. 3. Anywhere along the top of the Mogollon Rim 4. Woods Canyon Lake: A trail loops along the banks of the 55-acre lake 30 miles northeast of Payson down Forest Road 300. There is a small store and picnic grounds and plenty of fish to catch if your dog gets hungry. 5. Loop trail at Gila Community College: An easy 1.25-mile in-town loop accessed from the Gila Community College parking lot. Dedicated to Jimmy Harris, Jr., son of a longtime GCC staff member, the trail weaves across the 50-acre campus through small, shaded hills and seasonal washes. 6. Washington Park area 7. Deer Creek Trail: The 16-mile round trip trail is south of Payson off mile marker 235.5. 8. Pine Canyon Trail: The two-mile loop 14 miles north of Payson on Highway 87, just south of Pine, is the entry to the much longer and more difficult Highline Trail. The loop is relatively flat and easy. 9. Cypress Trail: Connects with the Boulders Loop Trail. Access two miles down Granite Dells Road, park on the west side of the road. 10. Monument Peak: Three-mile loop that passes through southeast Payson and the western portion of Star Valley. Head a little more than three miles down Granite Dells Road and park on the east side of the road.

Rim weather is perfect to take a hike
Keith Morris photo
SAFETY TIPS The staff at Payson Pet Care Veterinary Clinic says hiking with your dog is a great way to bond and exercise your dog’s mind and body. Their biggest safety tip: keep the dog on a leash. The only exception to this is if the dog responds 100 percent of the time to an owner’s recall command. It is especially dangerous if the dog does not immediately return to the owner’s side when approaching a horse or wild animal. Other tips include: • When approaching another hiker, recall the dog and/or put the leash on before contact is made. • Keep the dog’s rabies vaccine current. There have been several confirmed cases of rabies in Gila County. • As the weather warms up, rattlesnakes will become more active. Although snake avoidance training can be effective, a leash is the best way to keep a pet safe from a snake bite. Rattlesnake vaccinations are also available. • Learn to check the dog (and yourself) for ticks.
Contributed photos
Roundup Sports Editor Keith Morris regularly hikes area trails with his dogs Bailey and Bear (top photo). Mary Williams’ dogs (above) are fans of cooling their paws in the shallow water that can sometimes be found along trails around Rim Country. Jonnie Geen’s Nitro (at left) sometimes gets into unusual predicaments, such as being apparently stranded in the middle of a creek.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You might be upset about having to deal with problems that are no fault of your own. But you can turn the annoyance into an asset by showing how quickly and how well you can resolve them. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) The Bovine’s fondness for tidiness pays off when you untangle a situation that seems hopelessly snarled. You might later be surprised to learn who will be expressing his or her gratitude. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Although you can tackle your assignment the way you prefer, it might be a good idea to at least ask for suggestions. Who knows? One or two might even turn out to be helpful. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Make all the changes in your plans or proposals that you feel are necessary before -- repeat, before -- you submit them to your colleagues. You’ll come off looking more decisive that way. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) You might feel a mite intimidated in a new environment, be it a job, a classroom or meeting the future in-laws. But enter with a big smile, and everyone will see you as a real take-charge Cat. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) This could be a romantic time if you can set aside your cynicism and let yourself believe that someone really cares. If you’re already in a relationship, expect your partner to be extra-loving. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) It’s a good time to shed any doubts about your abilities. You’ve proved yourself in the past, so why not accept that you’ll do just as well, or better, in dealing with the new challenge ahead? SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Your suspicions might be on the mark, but unless you can prove what you assume, you need to exercise that Scorpion discretion and let events unfold without your assistance. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Be careful not to go over the top this week. Avoid overeating (especially of the wrong foods), or drinking too much, or working too hard. You can do it all, but in moderation. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) A family matter is given to you to resolve because you have the gift for bringing quarrelsome kinfolk together. But while you’re playing Dr. Phil, don’t neglect your career obligations. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Someone of importance shares your goals but disagrees with your plan to achieve them. Never mind. Defending your methods with logic and facts earns you admiration and respect. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Consider getting away, perhaps for the weekend, despite all the demands made on your time and energies. You’ll return refreshed and ready to tackle it all with your usual finesse. BORN THIS WEEK: You have a sense of honesty that makes people believe and trust in you. © 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.

Chow mein noodles become nests for candy Easter eggs.
Sweet Easter treat With Easter just around the corner, everyone is hopping to the candy aisle to pick up tasty treats. Celebrate the fun of the season with special sweets that everyone will enjoy. With the never-ending selection of Easter candies to fill your baskets and dessert spreads, picking the best can be difficult. In fact, the National Confectioners Association ranks this springtime celebration as the nation’s second top-selling candy holiday. A new addition to the candy aisle this spring includes a Nestlé Crunch candy line inspired by Charles Schulz’s beloved Peanuts characters, including Charlie Brown and Snoopy. These whimsical products join Nestlé’s existing collection of chocolate and sugar favorites that are sure to inspire creativity with gift baskets, egg hunts and sweet treats. Also new this year, candy lovers can feel better about the chocolate they’re choosing. Nestlé Confections & Snacks has announced the purchase of certified, sustainable cocoa equal to the amount needed to produce the entire Easter chocolate collection for the season through the Nestlé Cocoa Plan, Nestlé’s global commitment to sustainable cocoa. For the first time, U.S. consumers can purchase any products from Nestlé’s chocolate Easter collection and know that their purchase supports Nestlé’s commitment to better cocoa farming practices, improving social conditions and ethical sourcing. All of Nestlé’s Easter chocolate collection will feature a Nestlé Cocoa Plan logo on-pack to help you make a choice this Easter that is delicious and sustainable. Do you have an Easter gathering to host or attend? Hop into the kitchen and whip up this simple recipe for EggCeptional Easter Nests. Featuring Nestlé NestEggs, the bite-sized NestEggs are available in a variety of flavors including Nestlé Crunch, Crunch Creamy Caramel, Crunch Peanut Butter and Butterfinger, providing plenty of options to please every palate. EGG-CEPTIONAL EASTER NESTS
Preparation time: 20 minutes; total time: 21 minutes; makes 30 servings Wax paper 1-2/3 to 2 cups (11- to 12-ounce package) Nestlé Toll House Butterscotch or Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter 2, 5-ounce cans chow mein noodles 30-60 Nestlé NestEggs, any flavor Line trays with wax paper. Microwave morsels in large, uncovered, microwave-safe bowl on medium-high (70 percent) power for 1 minute; stir. The morsels may retain some original shape. If necessary, microwave at additional 10- to 15-second intervals, stirring just until morsels are melted. Stir in peanut butter until well blended. Add chow mein noodles to morsel mixture; toss until coated. Using ice cream scoop that measures about 2 rounded tablespoons, scoop and drop onto prepared trays then immediately shape into nests. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Before serving, place 1 or 2 candy eggs in each nest. Store prepared nests in covered container for up to 1 day. Source: Nestlé and Family Features
