Wolf Creek Village 1

If you are taking a day trip and would like to visit a little known piece of history Fort Buenaventura is the place to go. Fort Buenaventura was the first permanent settlement by people of European descent in the Great Basin . It was established by the trapper Miles Goodyear in 1846 about a mile west-southwest of the present-day Ogden municipal building. The fort was located east of the Weber River , at a bend in the river. The purpose of the fort was to serve as a trading post for trappers and travelers. In November 1847, Fort Buenaventura and the surrounding land claim were purchased by the Mormon settlers for $1,950, which now would be worth about $55,711.50. The settlement was then renamed Brownsville, but was later changed to Ogden after Peter Skene Ogden who trapped in the Weber Valley. Today the site of the original Fort Buenaventura is a park occupying 84 acres (340,000 m 2 ). When made a park, it was originally a Utah State Park, but is now a Weber County par
