After planting crops and building cabins, Wilford leaves Salt Lake Valley to return to Winter Quarters.
254th Sunday we tried to ford the Lou fork several men crossed on Hor[se]- [page covered]
back there Horses fell & plunged the men into the water, several
waggons followed, Horses got stalled into the quicksand & waggons
had to be Halled out by Hand & it was given up for the day
the camp moved down the river one mile & camped for the
day it was vary cold & windy & a snow storm at night
which made it bad on our poor weak Horses we cut
down cotton wood trees & fed them on the limbs
