FARMINGTON — Outdoor retailer Cabela's opened its second Utah location Thursday in Farmington.
Hundreds of people lined up to be among the first customers to visit the new 70,000-square-foot store at 391 N.

The store offers customers a grand outdoor experience with wood construction, stonework, wildlife displays and taxidermy mounts to go along with vintage outdoor photos and memorabilia, hand-painted murals, an aquarium and an indoor archery range. Additionally, the store also has a cafe, gun library and an array of outdoor products.
