a cattle trail, a faster way to move cattle in 1867
The Great Western Cattle Trail and the Chisholm Trail are both historic cattle-driving routes in the United States. The Great Western Cattle Trail runs from Texas through Oklahoma and into Kansas, primarily following a route west of the Chisholm Trail. In contrast, the Chisholm Trail runs from the Texas cattle ranches, through Oklahoma, and to Abilene, Kansas, located further east. On a map, you can find both trails stretching northward from Texas, with the Chisholm Trail being the more eastern route and the Great Western Trail more to the west.
They were trails that led from south Texas all the way through Kansas and Dodge City.
If I were traveling to Wyoming along the Chisholm Trail, I would likely take a route that branches off toward the west after reaching Kansas. The Chisholm Trail primarily served as a cattle-driving route from Texas to Kansas railheads, so I would need to navigate through the plains, possibly connecting to the Oregon Trail or the Mormon Trail, which lead further northwest toward Wyoming. This detour would allow me to reach my destination while following established pathways.
Because that's where they needed to sell their cattle.
In the late 1800s the Chisolm trail was used to drive cattle by cowboys. The cowboys originated in Texas and drove the cattle to Kansas to be sold.
