21 April 1852 to 13 December 1852. Sarah, her parents and siblings leave Liberty, Michigan to go to California. They make sure to rest on Sundays, and Sarah spends her time reading. They leave several articles of clothing on the trail, occasionally necessitating backtracking. They stay for 11 days in Salt Lake, while Sarah neglects to describe the city in her diary. They take the trail south through Juab and Nephi.
