Pics of The Oregon Trail - part of the actual trail
#1
While DH and I were in eastern Oregon we took The 2 Doods out to run off some energy out by the White Swan Mine. Out in that area you can still see the path that the Oregon Trail created through the sage brush. Shows how long it takes a desert to recover.
Amazingly enough....our GPS recognized it too. Part of the White Swan Mine road is on the trail itself.
