The Utah Democrat called the delay "most unwise," and asked the Bureau of Outdoor Recreation to teU him how much more additional funds they would need to be able to conduct the studies sooner. He said the tentative plans of the Bureau call for the Mormon Trail study to begin in fiscal Batyear 1971, and the Mormon talion Trail study to begin the following fiscal year. "I feel that delaying of the studies of these trails for over a year in one instance and twoyears in the other, is most unwise. Senator Moss said in a letter to Lawrence N. Stevens, Assistant Director of the Bureau. "In both cases the remaining vestiges of thetrailsare rapidly being obliterated by time and other factors. The)' are of al interest mainly from point of view, and if we allow the items of historical significance to deteriorate, then value of tlie trails will diminish. He said he was particularly Interested in a 3$ mile portion of the Mormon Trail known as the Old Pioneer Trail which stretches west from Henefer, over Big Mountain IntoSalt Lake City. He said great efforts have been made to preserve wagon ruts from the pioneer wagon trails, and various monuments erected by the early settlers of the valley along the rout. Ho said the longer the study is delayed, the less there is to preserve. The same ie true of the Mormon Battalion Trail. thecom-menceme- ahls-toric- nt |
