  • Barry Ray, his wife Melissa, and their daughter Evie journeyed from Granbury, Texas, to mark Evie’s 6th birthday at OutpostX in Beryl, Utah, on February 11, 2025.
  • OutpostX exists by design as a minimalistic retreat on a 100-acre dry lake bed, created after Chambers cashed out a digital ad agency in 2021 to pursue this project.
