About this listen

In this episode, Jake, Casey, and Isaac dive into the eclectic and drama-filled history of the first non-native Americans to explore Utah. On their journey to map out a land route to Monterrey California, Atanasio Domínguez and Silvestre Vélez de Escalante, along with an entourage of indigenous guides, make their way into Utah. They didn't make it to California, but some of the most scintillating parts of their journey took place in many prominent locations in Utah. Find out what their thoughts were through an extremely well-documented journal and discover why they never made it to their destination!
