How Far From West Bountiful to ...

We spend a lot of time looking through Gazetteers & Almanacs that were published in the late 1800's and early 1900's. Many of the Gazetteers include the distance from a city such as West Bountiful to various places of note, such as the White House.

A horse and buggy averaging 3.2 miles [5.1 km] per hour would take a little over three hours.
• The White House (Washington, DC) is 1,840 miles [2,961.2 km] to the east (E). Driving, with an average speed of 63 miles [101.4 km] per hour, would take most of three days, a buggy would take 72 days and walking would take 105 days.
