This article looks at the experiences of the women of the Church while at Winter Quarters. The author finds that while the labor was long and the discomforts many, it was a time of real achievement and progress for women. In general, these sisters expanded the traditional gender role expectations and formed close female bonds that enabled them to deal with the crisis. Women visited, comforted, and even performed priesthood ordinances on occasion.
