Parting of the Ways (Wyoming)

Parting of the Ways (Wyoming) is located in Wyoming

The Parting of the Ways is an historic site in Sweetwater County, Wyoming, USA, where the Oregon and California Trails fork from the original route to Fort Bridger to an alternative route, the Sublette-Greenwood Cutoff, across the Little Colorado Desert. Many wagon trains parted company, some preferring the shorter cutoff route, which involved fifty waterless miles, to the longer but better-watered main route.
