Information

The trail logo features a man walking in front of a burro packing goods on its back. These iconic trail figures represent the mule pack trains that traveled across the Southwest on the trail between Santa Fe, New Mexico, and Los Angeles, California. New Mexican traders moved locally produced merchandise across what are now six states to exchange for mules and horses.
