d. h. Hays Tells Of the Grandeur Of
The Little Zion Valley in
Dixie
MORE THAN PEER OF YOSEMITE PARK
With Good Roads Southern Utah
Would Be Mecca for
Tourists

H. H. Hayes. a member of the
Governors party who visited
the Royal Gorge of the Grand
Canyon last October, and fnci-
dentally made a detour to the
Little Zion Valley in Washing
ton county, writing to the Salt
Lake Tribune. delivers himself
Of the following eulogy on the
scenery of Southern Utah:
Satl Lake City will some time
be recognized as the hub gate
way to the most stupendous
scenery on the American CONT
nent. if not the whole world.
An hours research or investi-
cation will verify this. The
question is: How soon will we,
who live in these high places,
force realization of Salt Lake
City's strategic supremacy?
Louis w. Hill has demonstra-
ted within the last two years
what systematic exposition of
any scenic region can accom-
plish. Within that brief period,
under bis untiring direction. a
world wide publicity campaign
has raised Glazier national park
in northwestern Montana from
an obscure mountain wilderness
to a travel-trod recreation place
that now stands third in point
of tourist tavel among the thir-
teen national parks.
The park was always there.
The railroad that forms it's
southern boundary has been there
for a generation. The Blackfoot
Indians and the trappers always
knew it was a beautiful region.
But as far as the world knew.
it did not exist until highways
were built and Mr.. Hall began
to amaze the country with his
prodigality of publicity. Two
points suggest themselves with
relation to this remarkable rec
ord: First. the place had to be
made accessible and equal to the
needs of the modern traveller;
SECOND. the traveller had to be
told.
Last August Salt Lake City
and Yellowstone park enter
tanned the advertising agents Of
the transcontinental railways
the men who write the de luxe
publications which these carriers
spread broadcast through Amer
lea and Europe. This is a strik-
ing example of telling the
traveller" and the city's action
attracted a great dec of atten-
tion through the west at that
time, and will unquestionably
result in large measure Of en-
lightened publicity. Some local
men said at the time that the
visit by these few men would
do the city more good than any

convention which had ever beer
held here. and it is not far from
the truth.
The American Association
Agents will hold its next aunua
convention IN California during
the month of October, 1914. The
members of this association are
the men who come in direct
contact with the traveller at the
time he is planning his journey,
Since membership in the as
ISOLATION exceeds 1000, it is easy
to see what an influence this
association is in directing the
nations travel. These men
were invited to California in
1914 for the purpose of seeing
in advance what the world will
be invited to see a year later.
Hundreds of the members of
this association will travel
though Salt Lake City in special
trains on their way to their
California convention and this
city will undoubtedly have an
opportunity to entertain them
for the greater part of a day at
least
This offers another opportunity
for telling the tourist" We
can tell these men that in COM
ing to Salt Lake City they have
traversed the scenic core of the
continent without missing on
the way a single note worthy
attraction. We can tell them.
and show them if we have the
time, all the local places of
scenic and historic interest so
familiar to us. In addition, they
will appreciate that they are So
journing in great gateway to
the Yellowstone park. But after
all, they will learn practically
nothing about the great natural
scenery of southern Utah and
northern Arizona to which Salt
Lake is the gateway.
We cannot tell the world about
these places because they are
inaccessible. Material develop
ment must precede publicity.
Utah must build highways to the
Grand canyon, Little Zion valley
and the wonders of southern
Utah before a single high-class
pamphlet can be published
about them.
Nowadays the building of a
better mouse trap than ones
neighbor is not enough. The
world will not beat pathway
to a factory in the forest. The
Little Zion valley in southern
Utah may be more beautiful
than the world-famous Yosemite
valley, but only modern high
ways will earn for it such recog-
milton. This is an age that de-
mands comfortable and rapid
travel. AS long as it takes
less time to go from Salt Lake
city to New York than from
Salt Lake City to the scenic
wonders of southern Utah. it
is idle to repeat and amplify
what Powell, Dutton and other
explorers have said about the
marvellous country which lies to
the south of Salt Lake City.
In October it was my privi-
lege to be a member of a party.
among whom was Governor
William Spry. that made pill.
grimage from Lund, Utah, to
the Little Zion valley and the
Grand Cany,n of the Colorado
river. So much has been written
about the Grand canyon that

To the tourist and transconti
mental automobile traveller we
can hold out not only side excur
sion to the north rim Of thu
canyon. but visit on the way
to Little Zion valley. Reader.
will be surprised that severa
members of the governo's party,
| among them, consider Little
Zion valley richer in beauty anc
sublimity than the Grand canyon
itself.
Since this wonderful valley is
in contestably our scenic heri-
tage, it behooves all of our peo-
pie who are seriously interested
in the development Of the south
ern country for tourist travel to
attain a proper appreciation of
its scenic rank. The Little Zion
valley or Mu-kun-tu-weap cany on
is'a government reservation or
national monument" and was
set aside by President Taft in
1909. It invites comparison geo.
logically with Yosemite national
park. Both are comparatively
narrow valleys, walled in by
giant cliffs, which lift their sheer
walls thousands of feet above
the valley floor. Many of these
cliffs are $500 feet above the
narrow torrential Rio Vigin
river, which drains the valley,
and at least one pinnacle is said
to be 5000 feet high.
But, after all. it is the colora-
tion and not the nights and dis
tances which give the valley its
charm and beauty. The Yose-
mite walls are a monotone in
gray; the walls of Little Zion
at their bases are bands of all
the shades of brown and red,
with grays and Colds at their
SUBMITS. All members of the
party are one in the opinion that
Little Zion valley is more than
the peer of the California ma
tion park.
Witness the concurring testi
mony in the beautiful language
of Captain buttons government
repot:
Nothing can exceed the
wonderous beauty of Little Zion
valley which separates two
temples and their respective
groups of towers. In its proper
tions it is about equal to the
Yosemite. but in the nobility
and beauty of the sculpture
there is no comparison. 1t is
Hyperion to a satyr. No wonder
the fierce Mormon zealot. who
named it. was reminded of the
great Zion on which his fervid
thoughts were bent-of houses
not built with hands. eternal in
the heavens.
When it became known that
the governors party would visit
Little Zion valley. inhabitants
of the near by villages declared a
holiday for the purpose of join
ing tine expedition. A caravan
of about fifteen conveyances was
the result. Lest it be assumed
that all of the villagers were
familiar with this great canyon
which lies at their very door
