The Old Spanish Trail was pnmanly a horse and mule pack route between Los Angeles, Calif, and Santa Fe, N.M. Parts of the route states of went through the present-da- y California, Anzona, Nevada, Utah, Colorado and New Mexico. The history, background, and significance of the Old Spamsh Trail have been researched and analyzed in accordance with the requirements of the National Trails System Act. The study concludes that the Old Spanish Trail meets all but one of the criteria of the National TVails System Act for ehgibility as a national histone trail. The study finds that, with respect to the lustoric theme of trade and commerce and its effects on broad patterns of American culture, there is currently insufficient information upon which to conclusively base a determination of national significance. With respect to a number of historic themes and uses that were evaluated, the Old Spanish Trail is found to be of state or local significance. Therefore, the trail does not meet the criterion for national significance m section 5(b)(ll)(B) of the National Trails System Act. There is a marked lack of consensus among historians consulted to date as to the significance of the trail, due in part to the paucity of historical documentation about trail use and its effects, especially with respect to the New Mexican trade caravans. The draft study report presents an alternative that could be implemented by private organizations and the states to help preserve and interpret the Old Spanish Trail. Federal land management agencies could participate using existing authorities, or Congress could prescribe additional federal involvement A limited number of copies of the draft study report are available by contacting John Paige, at the address below.
