Colorado - South Platte River Trail
Description: Short in distance but long in history, this byway draws pioneer memories up out of the plains--wagon ruts from the move to the Great West, the peril of Indian attacks, big cattle drives, daring Pony Express riders, nearly forgotten outposts are all here.
Time to Allow: 30 minutes
