To travel the Oregon Trail, begin at either South Pass State Historical Park or the Forth Bridger State Historic Park.

Roadside turnouts with interpretive signs describe the various events along the Oregon Trail.

Watch for wild horses between Rock springs and Fourteen-Mile Hill and all across the top of White Mountain.
