“This is the Place”

 

When the Saints entered the valley on Thursday, July 22, 1847, they camped the first night by a stream. The next day they moved to another small stream (City Creek) and set up camp. This is where they stayed and where Salt Lake City began. What current location in Salt Lake City marks this second camp?

A)     The new City Creek Center

B)     The south-east corner of the temple block

C)     The Lion House

D)     The location of the current Conference Center
