Brief history

  Big Cottonwood Canyon was never one of the biggest districts in the state, but it did have its share of notable properties. The Reed & Benson, Wellington, Prince of Wales, & Eclipse in the early days. The Maxfield, Carbonate, Woodlawn, Cardiff and others in the later period. Lots of stories, and lots of history. Check back as we add things on a regular basis.
