We went out on the trail with all the missionaries from the Willie Site at Sixth Crossing. We pushed handcarts over part of the trail that we have here at our site. Here at the Sixth Crossing is where the Willie Company was bogged down and rescued when they were destitute, freezing and starving.
The family of John Linford put this monument here along the trail to memorialize him and to mark the place that he died.
We experienced one of the three sites that we have "Women's Pulls" here at sixth crossing. Those Pioneer Women were amazing. But we must remember that we women in this day and time are amazing too. We know how to do hard things and many have to do them alone. 
You might be asking what does this picture have to do with anything. Nothing except that on the way back in from training today we were in the back of a truck with the handcarts. I decided to jump out of the truck from the side and my pants got caught on something and man did they get torn. Good thing I had black tights on underneath them and that my jacket covered them mostly.
