Points forts
This trip focuses on the emigration and mining history found in the unique South Pass area: the zenith for westbound emigrants on the Oregon, California, Mormon, and Pony Express National Historic Trails. The region was a nexus for indigenous peoples, fur trappers, early government explorers, and early homesteaders. Five cycles of boom-and-bust gold, mineral, and ore mining have dotted the landscape with unique historical treasures.

Itinéraire
You’ll meet your guide at the overlook about Red Canyon, and will have the opportunity to explore two historic boom towns in Atlantic City and South Pass City, in addition to some off-the-beaten-track gems like beaver ponds recolonizing washes where gold miners once panned or some of the most scenic stretches of the Continental Divide Trail.
South Pass proper is a National Historic Landmark, where you can tread the paths labored over by peoples of an earlier time. This trip can be tailored to fit in a longer hike or two, or multiple stops at several points of historic and ecological interest.
See the original passage taken by westbound emigrants on the Oregon, California, Mormon, and Pony Express National Historic Trails. Enjoy expansive views while learning about the history of this harrowing journey. Also, learn about the local flora and fauna in the majestic region.
