The Sesquicentennial Mormon Pioneer Wagon Train had a big day today. The wagoneers entered Utah, had their first glimpse of the Wasatch Mountains, and they explored a cave that's rich in history. The are camped tonight in Echo Canyon. News Specialist John Hollenhorst joins us live from the encampment in Echo Canyon. John it must have been quite a day:

A wonderful day on the trail. One of the best so far, and we went along for the ride. The wagon train crossed the Utah border and then zig zagged over rough terrain through the last unspoiled stretch of the Mormon Trail. Its largely on private land. It brought the modern pioneers their first distant view of the Wasatch Mountains. The entry into Utah brought tears to the eyes one wagoneer from Vienna, Austria.

The wagoneers really enjoyed this last pristine part of the trail. From here on to Salt Lake they'll be on improved roads. They also were thrilled today by a visit to a very special cave--Cache Cave.

Tomorrow morning, the train will head to Henefer. You should be able to see the train from I-80, but be careful, troopers will cite spectators who cause traffic problems. Then on Wednesday and Thursday, you're invited to celebrate what's expected to be the biggest days in Henefer's history. Among other things, the Utah Symphony will play at the baseball diamond Wednesday.
