Emigrant Springs

 

 
 

Read All About It:

Emigrant Spring was an important stop along the Slate Creek Trail, one of the alternate routes of the Oregon Trail System. This area was heavily used by traveling pioneers as a camping and resting area. The spring provided water for the people and their animals, while the grass that grew nearby provided a comfortable resting place and forage for livestock. Evidence remains of pioneer habitation in this area including wagon wheel ruts and names and dates carved on the sandstone ledges above the spring.
