We are a newspaper covering news and commentary in Piute, Wayne and Garfield counties.
Much of the content we publish, whether online or in print, comes from youth from our community. We currently have two hired junior journalists between the ages of 16 and 18 and many other high school contributors.
Yes! We love publishing content from local writers — whether that is a letter to the editor, news article or press release — provided your articles align with our missions.
There are a lot of differences between us and the other local papers. But don’t take our word for it — explore our content to find out!
We are based in Escalante, Utah, in the middle of the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument.
We also cover news from the towns of Marysvale, Junction and Circleville in Piute County; Koosharem in Sevier County; Loa, Bicknell and Hanksville in Wayne County; Panguitch, Antimony, Tropic, Cannonville, Henrieville and Boulder in Garfield County; and even Bullfrog in Kane County.
We print a physical newspaper monthly, and it goes out to all the counties the first Tuesday of the month. The Byway also publishes online content daily, not all of which goes into the print paper.
