$a ne Essex Braves Terrors of Old Mormon Trail "Art" Hansen, San Bernardino mer- chant, is not a descendant of the pioneer band of Mormons who fought their way to the Pacific coast in 1847, but he had heard of the "Old Mormon Trail" through Cajon pass, so deter- mined to find it. Part of the old trail is still distinguishable, but much of it, across the roughest part of the Majave desert, has long since been abandoned and lost. When the Mormons, harassed and well nigh driven_to despair, with nearly half their complement of men already dead or dying of thirst and privation, determined, in spite of overwhelming odds, to "carry on" un- til they reached the promised land of milk and honey, they were so des- perately pushed by the Indians they covered their trail with the greatest care. No one has since had the temerity to attempt its location by motor car until Hansen essayed the feat. He knew his Essex was capable of ac- complishment, for it was light enough to overcome the sand, powerful enough to negotiate steep mountain grades and with stamina enough to go the pace and come back again, not once, but dozens of times if neces- sary. The Mormons came into southern California over Cajon pass, not where the paved road is now located, but across the summit where the wash cut a steep pitch down the south face of the ridge, 4000 fect above sea level. Hansen sent his Essex through the juniper brush, up steep washes, plow- ing through sand and gravel where a motor car had never before at- tempted a trail. "I knew what others reported of the Essex," said Hansen, "and how they praised its power and hill climb- ing ability. I watched the Essex per- form at the San Bernardino hill cilmb when it beat every car in its class by such a big margin that no one has since attempted to lower its record, and I have driven it on 'high' where I didn't believe a motor car could possibly go, but this trip over the old Mormon trail made me fully appreciate its really capacity."
