U.S. Map
Young Pony Express riders raced their horses across mountains, rivers,
and deserts to make the 1,840 mile (2,960 km) trip. Stopping every 10-20
miles for a fresh horse, a trip from St. Joseph, Missouri to San Francisco,
California took only 10 days.
Activity:
- Chart the possible path the rider took.
- Create your own keys to show the scale of miles and legend to show
other interesting features you would like to include on your map.
