Description
English: Emigrants inscribed their names on a variety of "register rocks" all along the trails. These signatures served a number of purposes, however many emigrants inscribed their names for the simple purpose of declaring, to one and all, that they had made the trek. Others hoped their signatures would signal to family and friends behind them on the trail the date at which they had reached this point.
