The Start of the Trail Treck Program

Join interpreters from the National Historic Trails Interpretive Center out of Casper, Wyoming for a FREE Trail Trek program starting at Scotts Bluff National Monument at 9:00 a.m., this coming Saturday, June 25th.  The group will be leaving the visitor center parking lot and travelling west on several gravel, highway, and two-track roads. A high-clearance vehicle with four-wheel drive is required. The trip will end in Wyoming somewhere in the Torrington/Fort Laramie area, depending on the weather and how participants feel.  Participants will drive their own vehicles to follow the pioneer trails and see many related sites along the way, including swales, graves, and monuments. Please be aware of weather forecasts/conditions and dress appropriately with good walking shoes. Also, be sure to bring lunches, snacks, and water or other drinks. We hope you will be able to come along for the ride!
