Road to Zion 5: This is the Right Place - Utah and Wyoming (2005)

Road to Zion was a short travelogue from BYU TV that visited various location from Church History. While often a tad short on providing full context, its main audience was not historians but lay members simply looking for a fun trek through Church History sites.
Upon arriving in the Salt Lake Valley, Brigham Young and his fellow pioneers began to establish Utah as a hive of activity, despite the fact that the area was isolated, arid, and short on natural resources. Beginning at This is the Place Heritage Park, overlooking the Salt Lake Valley, you'll experience firsthand what life was like for the early pioneers in Old Deseret Village. Then you will head into the valley to Brigham Young's home, the Beehive House. You will also retrace the trek of handcart companies in the untamed region of Martin's Cove, Wyoming, and then travel to southern Utah, stopping at Cove Fort, a traditional resting place for weary travelers. Once in St. George, you'll visit the homes of Brigham Young and early settler Jacob Hamblin. Finally, you'll learn of the St. George Temple, an architectural wonder that tested the financial and physical mettle of the Saints.

one of the many most spiritual times of my life was in the beehive house back in 1999 after the tornado went through and I was visiting and not very active at the time I went home and became very active again-

I was fortunate enough to take a vacation to Salt Lake City 3 years ago. Because of this episode I was so looking forward to the tour of the Beehive House. Unfortunately they were no longer showing the store. It was also no longer being ran by the church history department, instead it was ran by the missionary department. The sister missionaries giving the tour were unable to answer any questions about the house. Because of this episode I knew more about it then they did. All they did the whole time was challenge us to share our testimony, and kind of rushed us through everything. Thankfully I had my camera and was able to take pictures of everything. I really wish and hope the church gives the tours of it back to the history department.
