Marcus Jensen, an early Uintah Basin resident born 65 years ago in Jensen, Utah, spent his latest week in Vernal while finishing his first vacation in five years. A long-time cattle hand, he has worked across Blue Mountain Colorado, Keystone near Maeser, the Old Two Bar ranch by Snake River, and the K Bar T near Meeker, ending up with the Preston Nutter Corp. for five years.
