From Saint George to the Colorado crossing, trail practicable for wagon- road, except at Cottonwood Springs, ( twelve miles north of Colorado River,) where it leaves the Dry Wash and climbs steep mesas. At this point road would have to be built. From crossing to Truxton Springs, road could be built without difficulty, though in places grade would be steep. From Truxton Springs to Prescott, good wagon- road; joins Prescott and Hardyville mail- road at Cottonwoods, near old Camp Willow Grove. |
