Description
Imagine getting your team and your covered wagon down this! The view is looking down from the top of Windlass Hill in Nebraska on the Oregon/California Trail. The “ditch” in the center of the image is the eroded trace left from the iron wheeled covered wagons.
Windlass Hill is located along the Oregon-California Trail. The hill marked the entrance from the high table lands to the south into the Ash Hollow area and the North Platte River valley. Wagon ruts are visible on the hill. The name "Windlass Hill" was not used by the emigrants, and the source of the name is unknown.
The tracks going up the hill on the opposite side of the valley were made by the lucky covered wagons teams that made the journey down Windlass Hill intact…
Some digital effects were applied to the original image after the photograph was made. No electrons were harmed during the transition. Your finished photograph will not contain the Fine Art America watermark.
