History Atanasio Domínguez and Silvestre Vélez de Escalante were two Franciscan friars who were charged to find an overland route from Santa Fe, New Mexico to their Catholic monastery in California. During their expedition, they explored a large portion of the western United States, including much of Utah. On Sept. 22, 1776, they arrived in Utah Valley and saw Utah Lake. This is also where they met the Timpanogots Utes who lived there. To learn more about the expedition, click here.
