ROXTON â Ask most 9-year-old girls where they would like to go on vacation, and the reply might just be âDisneyworldâ or some other theme park. Ask Atlas Musick, and the reply will definitely be âmining minerals in Utah.â
Atlas has a passion for rocks, nature and animals. But the rocks and minerals are way out front.
Atlas and her parents, Mary and Ken Musick, live near Roxton on a pleasant piece of land. There are goats, chickens and vegetable gardens, a creek for her to play in and idyllic surroundings.
