It then tracks his trek through Arizona and Mexico on his way to an exploring or missionary trip to Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Colombia from 1900-1901. There are a also a variety of notes on the trip made after Tolton had returned to Utah, including lists of "some of the most important fruits we found."
