Provo had plenty of horses, and Ashley and his men joined him going out to Salt Lake, where Provo had come from.
The latter grow more precipitous toward the lower end, and scaling would be a difficult feat for a man well fed and strong, though well-nigh hopeless for any weakened by lack of proper food. At last, however, an opening appeared. Here they discovered Provo encamped with an abundance of provisions, so their troubles were quickly over. The opening they had arrived at was probably Brown's Hole.
Then came one Woolf, from whom squatter rights were bought in April, 1878, by John Reidhead, then lately from Utah. Pinetop, 35 miles south of Snowflake, dates back to March, 1888, when settled by Wm. L. Penrod and sons, including four families, all from Provo, Utah. Progress started with the transfer to Pinetop of the Mount Trumbull mill in 1890.
In Provo there are several small manufacturing establishments, for which the abundant water-power of the Timpanogas River, that tumbles down the neighboring cañon, furnishes great facilities. The principal manufacturing enterprise ever undertaken in the Territory that for the production of beet-sugar proved a complete failure.

Two successive epochs of eruption of basalt appear to have been clearly established an earlier one of the "Provo Age," when the lava was extruded from the Tabernacle craters, and a later epoch, when the eruptions took place from the Ice Spring craters. The oldest volcanic rock appears to be rhyolite, which peers up in two small hills almost smothered beneath the lake deposits.
Where in the world did you come from?" "I'm here on business," answered Shorty. "I came up from Headquarters at Jeffersonville. What brung you here?" "O," said Si, "we've bin hearin' about this Copperhead lodge for some time, and some of us boys who's home on furlough thought that we'd come down here with the Deputy Provo and bust it up. We've bin plannin' it a week or two.
She had started him now, with a firm grasp of his arm, walking beside him in the deep snow, and trying to keep him in the narrow path. "No I am staying here with Hubert Plimon's two babies, while the mother has gone to Provo where Hubert lies sick. See the light there. Come with me here's the gate you shall be warmed."
In front of the tithing-office, a train of wagons was loading with grain for removal to Provo. The Governor arrived on the 8th, and was conducted at once to the quarters he had occupied on his previous visit. The next day, he, together with the Commissioners, held an interview with the two messengers who had been sent up from Provo by Brigham Young.
