When the first company of Mormon settlers arrived in the Great Salt
Lake Valley in July 1847, it was immediately apparent that thier
survival depended upon what resources they found in the mountains
surrounding them. The Great Basin soil was baked hard by the sun
and yielded to the plow with great difficulty. And as pioneer
William Clayton noted, surveying the valley floor, "Timber is
evidently lacking." But within a week of arrival, a small dam had
been constructed to channel irrigation water to crops, parties had
been dispatched to explore the nearby canyons for trees suitable
for lumber, and names had been attached to several dozen features
of the landscape including peaks, creeks, and canyons.
