This free script provided by Welcome to the Colorado-Cherokee Trail Chapter website
About OCTA Our mission is to protect the
Historic Emigrant Trails legacy by promoting research,
education, preservation activities andpublic awareness of the
trails, and to work with others to promote these causes.
The Colorado-Cherokee Trail Chapter is one of 11 chapters in the OCTA organization, which maintain their own websites. Each
chapter work on marking and mapping the trails and works with
private landowners as well as government agencies, such as the
Bureau of Land Management and the National Park Service, on
preservation issues. It's a great way to get “on the ground” in OCTA because local chapters sponsor trail outings in their area
and have frequent meetings to discuss trail history and
preservation. Most of these events are open to members and
non-members alike. "Wagons Ho! Trail Transportation through Time"
