Description

N. Parley's Canyon-East of Salt Lake Cy. Also known as "Emmigration Canyon", because the Mormon emmigrants came thru it, and here, probably somewhere near where this picture was taken, first beheld the broad valley scenes that caused their leader to say "this is the spot I've been seeing in my dreams." A wagon road, also a R.R. run down in the bottom of the canyon. It is a wonderfully beautiful valley and the Mts. are magestic. Some bear glaciers.
