This is the final intersection on the maze of roads leading to the Big Sandy Opening. This is actually a "T" intersection. Depending on how you come in, you'll either continue straight on or turn left here. (Follow arrows on sign as applicable). This intersection is also where the Lander Cut-off of the Oregon Trail crosses the road. If you are into history, look for the white cement trail marker in the grass off to the left at this intersection. The trail crosses from right to left as people in the 1800s would have travelled through here. Anyone traveling in from the left road would have already passed over the Lander Cut-off a couple of times already on the road coming in to get to this point. |
