19 Spanish Trail
Any of a number of trade routes in the early days of the Southwest. Clark indicates that the term applied especially to two main roads, one leading from Santa Fe, New Mexico, to Los Angeles, California, and the other going from Salt Lake City, Utah, to San Bernadino, California, via Cedar City (Utah) and Las Vegas (Nevada). "Old Spanish Trail" that winds through Tucson and the surrounding area is part of the Santa Fe—Los Angeles route. Such trails would have been known to cowboys, rustlers, and renegades in the Old West. -
