Khor Kharfot

Another possible canidate for "Bountiful". (This one gets my vote.) As we carefully studied the Book of Mormon and looked for an even deeper description of Bountiful, (and it's all in Nephi's writings), this site was meeting them all. Although we will not know the exact location until the Lord reveals it to us, we do know that Lehi's epic journey across the Arabian desert ended on this coast within a few miles one way or the other of this beach.
We all knew and felt we were on sacred ground.

Lehi's family would have traveled through this valley which is named Wadi Sayq
(which means "river valley") to reach the great sea called Irreantum.

Our plans had to be altered because of the
dense fog and rain.
