The trail represents the only corridor to the West. 1843 was known as "The great migration" and over the next 25 years more than a half million people went west on the Trail. The highlights of the trail includes: the historical landmarks of Independence Rock, Devil's Gate, Echo Canyon, and Emigration Canyon. Visit the Temple Square in Salt Lake City and the Kennecott Copper Mine in the afternoon. Overnight stay in Salt Lake City.
