2010 To-do List[edit]

General purpose expansion of Overland Trail - research emigrant use (rather than just stage), find some solid statistics, and otherwise cleanup my poor prose. Perhaps do a better job of describing the trail through Colorado. Pictures would be nice.

Bridger Pass - ?? Might not be notable enough
Camp Walbach - fixup and reference. Not directly on the Overland Trail, but related as it was on the path from Fort Laramie to the Overland Trail east of Laramie.
North Fork Cache la Poudre River - Add infoboxes and improve with relation to the trails that used it.
Fort Sanders (Wyoming) - Find references relating the demise of Fort Halleck (Wyoming) due to the construction of Fort Sanders
Howard Stansbury - Write article Done
Camp Collins - Massive cleanup
Elk Mountain
William O. Collins - Write article (sub to-do: What does the O stand for?)
- Caspar Collins - Worth an article while I am researching the family?
11th Ohio Cavalry - the most prominent of the troops stationed at Camp Collins and Fort Halleck, but by no means the only one.
Colorado War - Could probably be better.
Laramie, Wyoming - Could use a rewrite
Joseph Alfred Slade - terribly inaccurate - could use a complete rewrite and further attention on the Overland Trail, in which he had a huge role.
F.T. Bryan - Notable enough? His expedition probably is.
Add Category:Overland Trail where appropriate
