| 説明 | Interpretive sign at Lees Ferry. "Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. National Park Service. U.S. Department of the Interior. National Park Service. Historic District River Trail. Leave No Trace. Pack it in, pack it out. Protect and enjoy the landscape responsibly. Spencer Trail spurs from River Trail. Throughout the 1800 and 1900s, Lees Ferry was backdrop to a mix of Westward expansion dreams and failed schemes. Because of its strategic location along the Colorado River, unlikely groups overlapped on these shores. Miners, traders, U.S. government scientists, Church elders, and the occasional outlaw shared the trials of frontier life here. Walk the River Trail to glimpse the myriad people and purposes that left a mark on Lees Ferry. Great Expectations. Prospector Charles H. Spencer made an outsized impact on Lees Ferry in his short time here. A better salesman than miner, Spencer never succeeded in extracting minerals the way he succeeded in exciting investors. When he staked his claim at Lees Ferry, financial investors and hardworking miners went along for the ride, but never struck it rich with Charlie. Timeline of Those Who Came and Went.
