Best Answer

The Mormon pioneers helped later pioneer groups traveling west by planting vegetables along the trail and setting up 'winter quarters' areas. In Salt Lake City, they provided supplies for people going further west to California for the Gold Rush.

They set the trail. They made paths and trails to make it possible for others to come after them. Hope this helps you out. Gwen Brewer
