The Mormon Pioneers finally settled in Utah because they had found a place where there were no other existing inhabitants to kick them out (they got along pretty well with the Native American Tribes in the area). Also, before his murder, Joseph Smith prophesied that the saints would have to move west to the Rocky Mountains to find freedom. A very popular Mormon Hymn sung by the pioneers says "We'll find the place which God for us prepared far away in the west. Where none shall come to hurt or make afraid, there the Saints will be blessed."
