    Desc: Hole in the Rock Expedition: Directed by Rob Sibley. With Gerald N. Lund. In 1879 a faithful group of Utahans sought to establish a settlement in southeastern Utah. Their six month journey would required conquering rugged impassable territory, sheer sandstone walls, steep mountainsides and solid rock ridges. The pioneers began by blasting a roadway through a rocky crevice barely large enough for a man to walk through. Then workers tacked a roadway on to the side of a vertical mountain and constructed a ferry to cross a treacherous river. Through that "Hole in the Rock", 250 men women and children, 83 wagons and over a thousand head of livestock descended to the perilous Colorado River. Hosted by author Gerald N. Lund, this powerful documentary relates stories of faith, ingenuity and courage as told by descendants of the Hole in the Rock expedition.
