Now the farmstead hosts various educational opportunities and community events that bring in thousands of visitors each year. In addition to popular annual events like Barnyard Babies, a live nativity and the Utah Honey Harvest Festival, the Clark Historic Farm hosts children’s camps, school field trips and tours. To learn more about the farm, visit clarkhistoricfarm.org, or call 435-884-4409 to schedule a personal tour. THE LINCOLN HIGHWAY Where America’s first coast-to- coast motor route still exists Tooele County’s history abounds with playing a pivotal role in the movement of people and commerce across America’s West, such as the Hasting’s Cutoff, the Pony Express Trail and the Overland Stage during the mid to late 19th century. That role continued in 1912 with the Lincoln Highway, America’s first transcontinental highway that linked New York City and San Francisco by automobile. Several vestiges of the highway are still evident at Lake Point, Grantsville, Johnson’s Pass, Orr’s Ranch and Ibapah. A monument to the highway sits atop Johnson’s Pass next to state Route 199. For more information on the Lincoln Highway’s route through Tooele County, visit lincolnhighwayassoc.org. 6 | TOOELE COUNTY magazine TREE OF LIFE Tree of Life stands tall While driving across Tooele County’s West Desert, a Swedish artist had a vision of a tree springing out of the ground breaking up the monotony of salt and sky. Karl Momen returned and from 1982-86 he built the “Metaphor: The Tree of Utah,” also known as the “Tree of Life.” Near mile marker 26 on the northside of Interstate 80, the colorful tree stands 87-feet tall. Momen has offered several interpretations of his tree, which he donated to the State of Utah. There is no off-ramp, parking lot, or pull-off for the tree, but many vehicles do pull over on the side of road and people can be seen standing with camera in hand. OQUIRRH OVERLOOK See far and wide from the Oquirrh Overlook Follow Tooele City’s Vine Street east to Middle Canyon and nine miles and 3,784 vertical feet later. you’ll reach the 8,988 foot-high summit of the Oquirrh Overlook, a breathtaking viewpoint for Salt Lake Valley, the Great Salt Lake, the Oquirrh Mountain range and much of the Wasatch Front into Davis and Utah counties. A birds-eye view of the Kennecott Copper Mine below reveals bug-sized 300-ton haul trucks moving precious ore from the mountainside for smelting 24/7 year round. See the “Copper Pit Overlook” breakout map on tooelecountytrails.com for specific information. SIMPSON SPRINGS For an off-the-beaten path experience in the West Desert Simpson Springs is the place if you’re looking for a remote experience in Tooele County’s West Desert. Located 55 miles southwest of Tooele City, Simpson Springs is on the Pony Express Trail and Prospector OHV Backway Complex. A restored Pony Express Station IOSEPA is the anchor attraction there, plus a BLM campground with 20 campsites. The visual backdrop west of the Pony Express Station is breathtaking, with the rugged Dugway Iosepa stands as a desert Range, Granite Peak and distant Deep Creek Mountains on the horizon. The place is highly remote, but the Town of Vernon, with a convenience store and fuel, is only 25 tribute miles away. For directions, check any mapping app. In 1889, Polynesian immigrants left paradise to be near an LDS temple and built a community in the unforgiving Skull Valley desert. They named it Iosepa — “Joseph” — for Joseph F. Smith, the missionary who taught them, and LDS church founder Joseph Smith. A century ago, they returned to their island homes. Today, a few crumbling foundations, a cemetery, and a small monument remain, but their spirit and courage live on. On Memorial Day weekend, May 25-27, 2018 join the Iosepa Historical Association’s festivities. Camp, feast, learn crafts and dance the hula among the tumbleweeds to celebrate this history. www.facebook.com/ IosepaHistoricalAssociation/In TOOELE COUNTY magazine | 7 BLACK ROCK Memorable lake vistas at Black Rock Fifty feet above the Great Salt Lake’s sandy southern shoreline in Tooele County is a massive protuberance called Black Rock. The rock provides breathtaking views of the lake and the rugged northern front of the Oquirrh Mountains. Sunrises are spectacular from the rock’s summit, but sunsets are truly legendary. Brigham Young is noted to have traveled to Black Rock three days after entering Salt Lake Valley in 1847. It once was the site of a popular beach resort for families and featured a broad beach that extended to the east. Access is via the access road to the Great Salt Lake Marina from Saltair. Take exit 104 off of Interstate 80 or state Highway 202 to reach Saltair.

  • Wilderness Visitors and Recreation Impacts: Baseline Data Available for Twentieth Century Conditions
    United States Department of Agriculture Wilderness Visitors and Forest Service Recreation Impacts: Baseline Rocky Mountain Research Station Data Available for Twentieth General Technical Report RMRS-GTR-117 Century Conditions September 2003 David N. Cole Vita Wright Abstract __________________________________________ Cole, David N.; Wright, Vita. 2003. Wilderness visitors and recreation impacts: baseline data available for twentieth century conditions. Gen. Tech. Rep. RMRS-GTR-117. Ogden, UT: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 52 p. This report provides an assessment and compilation of recreation-related monitoring data sources across the National Wilderness Preservation System (NWPS). Telephone interviews with managers of all units of the NWPS and a literature search were conducted to locate studies that provide campsite impact data, trail impact data, and information about visitor characteristics. Of the 628 wildernesses that comprised the NWPS in January 2000, 51 percent had baseline campsite data, 9 percent had trail condition data and 24 percent had data on visitor characteristics. Wildernesses managed by the Forest Service and National Park Service were much more likely to have data than wildernesses managed by the Bureau of Land Management and Fish and Wildlife Service. Both unpublished data collected by the management agencies and data published in reports are included. Extensive appendices provide detailed information about available data for every study that we located. These have been organized by wilderness so that it is easy to locate all the information available for each wilderness in the NWPS. Keywords: campsite condition, monitoring, National Wilderness Preservation System, trail condition, visitor characteristics The Authors _______________________________________ David N.

Douglas Ramsey1 ABSTRACT.—Land managers and scientists need context in which to interpolate between or extrapolate beyond discrete field points in space and time. Ecological classification of land (ECL) is one way by which these relationships can be made. Until regional issues emerged and calls were made for ecosystem management (EM), each land management institution chose its own ECLs. The need for economic efficiency and the increasing availability of geographic informa- tion systems (GIS) compel the creation of a national ECL so that communication across ownership boundaries can occur.

FLORA OF THE STANSBURY MOUNTAINS, UTAH Alan C. Taye' Abstract.— The Stansbury Mountains of north central Utah rise over 2000 m above surrounding desert valleys to a maximum elevation of 3362 m on Deseret Peak. Because of the great variety of environmental conditions that can be found in the Stansburys, a wide range of plant species and vegetation types (from shadscale desert to alpine mead- ow) exist there. This paper presents an annotated list of 594 vascular plant species in 315 genera and 78 families. The largest families are Asteraceae (98 species), Poaceae (71), Brassicaceae (33), Fabaceae (27), and Rosaceae (26). Elymiis flcwescens was previously unreported from Utah. Statistical comparison of the Stansbury flora with neighboring mountain floras indicates that the Wasatch Mountains lying 65 km to the east have probably been the primary source area for development of the Stansbury flora.
