Martins Cove





 We would be bad pioneers, that was hard to pull even around a small path.
 Loren got in the handcart so the kids pulled him. I thought it was hard before wow!
 Aubrey and Connor ride now, Taylor didn't wan to.
 oh no a good picture but its all I have!
 Devils gate, where the snake river flows through the rock!

 Indepenance Rock, the pioneers did well when they reached this by July 4th, but the Willy Martin Handcart Company didn't read this untl October.
The sun was beating in their eyes!

We went to the Morman Pioneer Trail path of Martins Cove, this is historic for all the lives that were lost in a snow storm and when familes were so low on supplies. It was peaceful here and and a far cry from the snow storm that the pioneers had at almost 100 degrees.
