City Of Rocks National Reserve
James Wilkins was among the first wagon travelers, 1849, to fix the name City of Rocks to
what looked like "a dismantled, rock-built city of the Stone Age." California Trail pioneers
were leaving civilization as they knew it in the East for new lives in the West. Beginning in
1843, City of Rocks was a landmark for emigrants on the California Trail and Salt Lake
Alternate Trail and later on freight routes and the Kelton, Utah to Boise, Idaho stage route.
