				Site 8, Cottonwood Hill Cottonwood Canyon was a box canyon, boxed in on three sides by steep sandstone cliffs. Construction of a path out of the canyon required a significant amount of blasting, much more than was required in the Hole-in-the-Rock. The pioneers named this section of their roadwork Cottonwood Hill. Cottonwood Hill was comprised of three major sections; The Sand Hill, The Dugway, and The Little Hole-in-the-Rock.

Friday, Feb. 13th, 1880. "Have been busy during the past 3 days moving our wagons up the Cottonwood Hill where it took from 4 to 7 span of horses or the same number of oxen to move 1 wagon. The weather has been very cold and stormy a part of the time."
