Explanation:

Originally, it had been planned to evacuate the city of Nauvoo in April 1846, but in view of threats that the state militia intended to prevent the Saints from moving to the West, the Twelve Apostles and other civil leaders hastily rallied in council of February 2, 1846. They agreed that it was imperative to begin the journey westward immediately; and the exodus began on February 4. Under the leadership of Brigham Young, the first group of saints eagerly began their journey; However, that yearning faced a great test: they would have to travel many kilometers before they could establish permanent camps that would allow them to rest from the prolonged winter weather and an exceptionally rainy spring.

In order to be safe from their pursuers, thousands of Saints had to first cross the wide Mississippi River to enter Iowa territory. The dangers of the journey began immediately when one of the oxen kicked a ship carrying passengers, knocking it into a hole. and sinking it.

Despite all the inconveniences, they were finally able to reach their destination and on July 31, 1846, after a trip characterized by severe storms, scarce food and long days of navigation, they arrived in San Francisco. Some stayed and established a colony called New Hope, while others traveled east, across the mountains, to meet the saints on the great plateau.
