The SUPER AMAZING trip tp Martin's Cove!


Martin's Cove is a very fun and exciting place to go on an adventure that will last your entire life! It is where the Mormon Pioneers left all of their handcarts. They have built so many replicas of how the place used to look and you get to learn all about how the pioneers lived and traveled to Utah. In the Handcart Museum, you get to learn all about the handcarts and how they were used. Once you have learned about the handcarts you get to go and try them out and see how much work it was for the pioneers to pull them across the United States!
Devil's Gate is very close to Martin's Cove. At Devil's Gate is actually the more specific area where the pioneers ended up having to leave their belongings. They had several men stay behind in Martin's Cove to watch over the others belongings until they could come back after the snow storm. This place is very important to us because without these pioneers the west would not exist and be the way that it is today.
All in all Martin's Cove is a great place and i believe that if you live in the west you should definitely go and experience this amazing area!
