The Ute Pass pictured here is in Colorado, and not part of the Oregon Trail which didn't pass through Colorado.

I lived in Colorado when I was in the Army. Coloradans liked to refer to themselves as pioneers. I always told them they weren't pioneers, they were quitters who stopped at the first mountain they came to. The real pioneers were people like my great-great-grandparents who came all the way across the continent on the Oregon Trail.
