The Old Spanish Trail ran through lands mostly claimed by Mexico from the 16th to 19th centuries. It began at Santa Fe (now New Mexico) and ended at Los Angeles. It was a path for Spanish explorers and traders beginning in the mid- 1500s, and reaching its widest use during the last years of greater Mexico, from about 1830 to 1848. It was still in use even after the majority of the territory was ceded to the US in 1848, following the Mexican American War.
The name was given to it by John C. Fremont after he and Kit Carson traveled the trail around 1844. It is a rugged, mountainous route through deserts and
areas of severe winter storms. From Santa Fe, it runs northwest to central Utah (near present-day Green River, Utah) then slants southwest to Los Angeles through extreme southern Nevada.
