The story

from WikipediaRead it all ↗

In 1909, the New Castle Reclamation Company invested in land near the Beryl Crossroads in the Escalante Valley. The company built a hotel to bring prospective buyers, promoting the land for agricultural development. The venture failed around 1915, but the community has grown slowly since then as modern irrigation techniques have made the farmland productive.
