Cherokee Trail
A colored sketch of a portion of the Cherokee Trail, a historic overland route starting in what is now the U.S. state of Oklahoma, winding through Kansas and Colorado before joining the Oregon, California and Mormon Trails in Wyoming. It was one of the primary routes used by prospectors in the California Gold Rush. Gold discovered on the route led to the Colorado Gold Rush.Artist: Daniel A. Jenks; Restoration: Lise Broer

Map needed

[edit]

This article really needs a map of the trail, preferably showing it in connection with the other great trails in the region. --Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 14:58, 27 September 2010 (UTC) Hi my name is Nathan and I think that this picture is just absolutely beautiful I hope that you enjoy this picture also.[reply]
