Mormons were moving to the dry land of Utah because they are seeking political and religious freedom. They began to plan their great movement from one part of something to another, like from east to west after Joseph Smith was been murdered; the Christian sect’s first leader and founder. But after 2 years Brigham Young the successor of Smith led a migration of oppressed Mormons along the wagon trails of the west, where they are searching for their sanctuary across the rocky mountains; they are investigating Utah’s Great Salt Lake Valley. Young did not arrive until July 24, 1847, due to illness. He and his companions begun to build the future the Salt Lake City at the foot of Wasatch Mountains.
