Mountain Meadows is an area in present-day Washington County Utah. It is a place of rest and grazing used by migrants on the Spanish Trail on their way overland to California.
It was there that the incident known as the Mountain Meadows Massacre happened in September 1857, when on the verge of the Utah War, Mormon settlers and Paiutes ambushed and killed all but the young children of a migrant party traveling from Arkansas to California.
In 1990 a memorial was dedicated there recognizing the victims of the incident.
