""it is seated at the foot of the white mountain which is perpetually snowtopped; and on utah creek at the mouth of a ravine out of which the creek flows a cool limpid stream. there is an abundance of wood and in the summer the grazing is good, but the warm season is short, and it is doubtful if corn will ripen here. the nearest settlement is 30 miles to the southward on the coulubre (culebra) river where there are about 25 families engaged in the planting of corn and wheat. the design of this post was to keep the utah indians in check and it is calculated for dragoons and infantry. the buildings are good and suitable as well as abundant. they are, however, placed too near the spur of the mountain for good defense against an enterprising enemy. all supplies for this post come from the settlements at the south as far as taos valley, and fort union, which may be called 165 miles distant. in winter the snow falls here to the depth of four feet….my impression are that this post would have been better located on the culebra river, the most norther settlement in new mexico, where access could be had to the troops by the population of the valley, without the hazard of being cut off by the indians. the home of the utah indians is here, and particularly in the west of the rio grande del norte. a post is therefore necessary in this quarter, and this valley may before long be a good route of communication with the states in the summer season, and it probably is the best route of communicating between new mexico and the great salt lake and northern california"."
