By Dave Martin Some occasionally wonder about the attendant word “hole” affixed to the names of various well-known locations in the West, particularly the popular Jackson Hole. According to historian Michael Schaubs, a “hole” is a “sheltered location, such as a valley, which has the four requisite necessities: food, fodder, wood and water, where a brigade or party of men (trappers) would ‘hole up’ for the Expo, 4400 Harrison Blvd., Ogden A hole was generally named after 6:00 pm - 3nd Annual Mayor’s Walk at 18th & winter. some individual of distinction associated Grant Ave. with the location.” Generally speaking, a hole offered a whole SaTUrDay-May 19 lot of pleasantry in an otherwise dangerous th 5:15 am - Last runner buses leave from 25 St. & wilderness.

The race has become a family favorite thanks to events such as the Granite Construction Kids K, The Utah Eye Centers 5K and the 1-mile Mayor’s Walk, presented by American Pet Nutrition. This year, the GOAL Foundation is continuing the Sunrise Canyon Bike Ride as part of the schedule of events where bike riders will have the unique opportunity to ride their bicycles through the canyon while it’s closed, and this year they will end downtown with the other athletes. During the day of the marathon, Ogden Canyon will be closed 6:00 a.m. to 1:15 p.m. for events. Ogden Canyon residents with access passes will be permitted to use the Utah Highway Patrol shuttle service to travel to and from their homes. Eden, Huntsville and Liberty residents are asked to use Trappers Loop or the North Ogden Divide due to the canyon closure. All Valley traffic is expected to return to normal by 1:15 p.m. May 19. As part of this year’s Mayor’s Walk, presented by American Pet Nutrition, participants are invited to bring their four-legged furry companions. This walk takes place Friday, May 18 and begins near High Adventure Park on Grant Avenue and 18th St., and will also finish at the same location as the marathon. The first 200 people to register will receive an event shirt and a commemorative Mayor’s Challenge coin.

Jackson Hole, on the other hand, was earlier discovered, but a late-comer in name. John Coulter, hunter and guide for the Lewis and Clark Expedition, is long thought to be the first Anglo-American to enter Jackson Hole in 1808, but no name of record was attached to the scenic valley for years to come. Jackson Hole was officially named by postmaster Magaret Simpson in 1893 for American trapper “Davey” Edward Jackson who trapped beaver in the area in the late 1820’s. Jackson was later officially incorporated in 1914. Brown’s Hole, located where the Colorado, Wyoming, and Utah borders run together along the Green River, is known today as Brown’s Park. Myth and facts merge here. Euro-American trappers first entered the area in the early 19th century finding it inhabited by Shoshone and Ute tribal groups. Blackfoot, Sioux, Cheyenne, Arapaho, and Navajo tribes also visited and used the area. In 1832 Browns Hole became the location of Fort Davy Crockett and, later, hideouts for notorious rustlers, horse thieves, and outlaws, including Butch Cassidy’s Wild Bunch. Brown’s Hole is said to be named for French-Canadian trapper and early settler Baptiste Brown around 1827. However, divergence in historical opinion authenticating its namesake only adds to the location’s mystique. Lots of holes in the Brown’s Hole story! Another notable “hole” was Pierre’s Hole, whose namesake “le grand” Pierre Tivantagon actually made his historical debut not in nearby Jackson, but in Ogden’s Hole as a member of Peter Skene Ogden’s 1825 Hudson’s Bay brigade. Said to be of Iroquois descent, Pierre was killed in a battle with Blackfoot Indians in 1827. Pierre’s Hole was the site of the huge OGDEN HOLE cont. on page 7 We are Celebrating our 70th Spring!
