For the past decade, Ross High has lived in a unique house blasted into the side of a rock along Kane Creek Road. But Ross and his neighbors must now quickly look for other housing after a development company served them with eviction notices. Today on the news, we spend time with Ross and his daughter Kate, who tell the story of the close-knit ‘Charlie-wood’ community currently becoming displaced.

And, the Weekly News Reel, where we speak with reporters about their latest stories of the Moab area. Doug McMurdo of The Times-Independent details an ongoing complaint from a local victim about Moab City Police Chief Bret Edge. Alison Harford of the Moab Sun News discusses their profile on the Kane Creek evictions, and the upcoming ‘movie mash’ and folk festival.

Show Notes:
