History
The name “Chisholm Trail,” though applied periodically to other routes, is most commonly associated with a trail leading from around San Antonio north through Austin, Waco and Fort Worth before crossing the Red River at Red River Station in Montague County, then roughly paralleling present-day U.S. Highway 81 through Oklahoma and onward to Abilene, Kansas.
The Chisholm Trail Virtual Challenge Route will only follow the trail in Texas, so it ends at the Red River Station on the Texas-Oklahoma border. The goal for this challenge is to make it to the Waco Suspension Bridge by August 29th.
