Dimple Dell Trailhead

May 2022 Outdoor and In-Person Experiences

All month long the Utah SHPO and partners host events ranging from tours, to hikes, to open houses. This year we invite you to experience the past with us in so many ways!

As a part of the Dimple Dell Preservation Community's Family Day, come join a walk with a real archaeologist who works at this site!Archaeologist Elizabeth Hora will share with you the history of the pioneer home, and how early settlers worked to grow their own food. Learn about the importance of their fruit orchards, gardens and farm animals. Elizabeth's research is in dendroarchaeology - how we can read tree rings to learn about the past, and she will share with you samples of her research at the Muir-Poulsen Grove.Family Day also includes native story tellers and pioneer games, such as hoop rolling and making flour sack dolls. Come bring the whole family for a fun morrning out at the old homestead!
