At the mouth of Emigration Canyon, this park links a valley viewpoint with pioneer history. A monument stop is brief; the Heritage Village calls for more time and a separate admission decision.

This is the setting associated with Brigham Young's first view of the Salt Lake Valley in 1847. Look outward from the monument to grasp the pioneers' arrival route, then use the village's houses and demonstrations to picture settlement after that first view.
