Thunder Bluff Road How the German Dugway Came to Be
Historical account of the Thunder Bluff Road later called the German Dugway. Seth Kunz and family from Bern built a shortcut from the Bear Lake side to Cache Valley, with later CCC work linking Mink Creek to Hull Valley. The road earned its name from locals, while surveying and labor disputes shaped its final path and long use.
