The ground is rough about the camp, and covered with sage and greasewood. Two miles up the creek, near the canon, is some grass, but it is not abundant here. Good wood, water, and grass. The spring at camp is large, with plenty of wood, but the grass is scarce. Down the creek it is more abundant.
Road runs among several arroyas for a few miles, and is then straight and good to camp.
Good grass a mile to the east of camp. Camp is between two mountains. Wood, water, and grass abundant. The Mormon road runs nearer the mountains, and Colonel Loring thinks it is better than the one he traveled. Grand River runs through a canon, and can not be reached with the animals.
