The History Hour - Old Spanish Trail, Elk Mountain Mission

The latest History Hour tells two stories of early settler history. First, the longest, most arduous pack route in the country...the Old Spanish Trail! And second, the establishment (and eventual failure) of the Elk Mountain Mission in the Moab Valley. Note, all the information and research shared on this episode is from the perspective of settlers based on their journal entries as well as books and online research. // Music in this episode is Speedy Delta by Lobo Loco
