Wagons Ho! Rangel Construction to Upgrade Historic Oregon Trail Site in NE
Scottsbluff National Monument, located adjacent to the town of Gering, NE, is a site that preserves significant historical landmarks along the western settlement routes of the mid-nineteenth century. These important westward expansions included the Oregon, Mormon, and California Trails. Originally established as a National Monument in 1919, the site began a fuller development as a tourist attraction in the 1930s, and preserves the beautiful natural rock formations of Scotts Bluff, Eagle Rock, Sentinel Rock, and Dome Rock.
