South Pass on the Oregon Trail

South Pass was the key to travel along the Oregon, California, and Mormon trails. The wide saddle offered the pioneers a gradual incline over the continental divide. After crossing over the pass most pioneers headed south to Fort Bridger in present-day southwest Wyoming.

    Thank you for sharing the video. What’s the location, exit, or mile marker for stones at the end of video?

    On Highway 28 turn east on Oregon Buttes Road (gravel) until you reach Emigrant Trail Road, a two-track road you may or may not want to drive on. If not, I'm guessing it is about a mile walk. All this is poorly marked.
