This article discusses the life of Chief Kanosh of the Pavant band of Utes. Kanosh was notable for his persistent efforts to avoid armed conflict with his Mormon neighbors, which he knew would result in disaster for his people. He acted as a peacemaker during the Black Hawk war. Despite this friendship, much of his band felt compelled, along with the other Ute bands, to remove to the Uintah Reservation. However, Kanosh and a small number of his band continued to live in Millard County and farm. His example helped his people to adapt and survive in a world that was changing and challenging for Utah Indians.
