Extractions: See Trail Variants Page When Congress passed the National Trails System Act of 1968 (Public Law 90-543), only scenic trails were considered. The first two National Scenic Trails that were named in the 1968 National Trails System Act were the Appalachian Trail and the Pacific Crest Trail. Current efforts are focused on seeking trail equality by allowing variants of the Mormon Pioneer, Oregon, and other variants of the California and Pony Express Trails to be acknowledged and included in the National Trails System Act. Two bills have been introduced in the 107th Congress, H.R. 37 by Congressman Doug Bereuter , NE, and S. 213 by Senator Orrin Hatch Title: To amend the National Trails System Act to update the feasibility and suitability studies of 4 national historic trails and provide for possible additions to such trails. (The wording on both is the same.) H.R. 37 passed the House, June 7, 2001. S. 213 is still languishing since the end of January in the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, waiting for the change in leadership to set priorities. We need help on the senate side.

Julesburg I 'll confess, one of the reasons I like to explore the Pony Express Trail is that it gives me yet another excuse to visit Nebraska, one of my favorite vacation states. But above and beyond that, there's something inherently romantic about this trail and what it represents. This is the stuff of which the corny cowboy shows of my boyhood were made, but the real story is anything by corny. About the Historic Pony Express Trail B y 1860 or so, a freight and stage route was in place which followed quite a bit of the Oregon and California Trails across the American continent. However, this hadn't become a profitable affair yet, and so the owner, one William Russell, proposed establishing an additional mail service with the intent of generating new revenue. Instead of cumbersome wagons, speedy ponies would be pressed into service to carry letters and lighter parcels across the country. It was hoped that this would bolster profits and draw attention to the ailing freight company.

Extractions: WESTWARD EXPANSION The story of the United States is a story of growth to the west. This time of growth is called the westward movement or westward expansion. Explorers and Europeans from Columbus to the Pilgrims, traveled west to settle "new" worlds. After the United States became a "new" nation, settlers looked west and longed to explore the great unknown lands beyond the mighty Mississippi River. Daniel Boone was responsible for leading adventursome Americans west into Kentucky in the 1770's. Later, pioneers traveled west on the Oregon Trail in the 1840's. Adventure and exploration were the heart and soul of many early Americans. Many adventursome early Americans set the course of history for United States expansion. Chronological timelines present a framework for students to examine the major events of a specific time period. The events in time listed below are not all inclusive, but does provide a good starting place for students to begin to learn about westward expansion.
