OPINION

EASTAUGH, Justice.

I. INTRODUCTION

Avis McDougall appeals from rulings entered when she and Lindsay Lumpkin divoreed. We vacate the property division and remand because it was both inequitable and based on clearly erroneous findings. We also vacate the alimony award and remand because of conflicts between that award and the property division, and because of unexplained contradictions between the superior court's oral and written findings. We affirm the award of joint legal custody because the superior court did not abuse its discretion in dealing with the custody issue.
