Jay's comment about Iowa City and Mormon Trek Road reminded me of a few
projects that I have been thinking about for when I return to the good
ol' US of A.
One was an aerial photographic survey of the Mormon Trail, along with
some ground shots, documenting what is left of the trail.

These guys did a nice job with the Lewis & Clark Journey via AirCam. I've read their book and it was a very
professional job.

I've flown the Santa Fe Trail and I've considered flying the Oregon / Mormon Trail in the future.
I'd suggest "The Oregon, California, and Mormon Trails by Air: A pilot's Guide to the Immigrant Trails" (ISBN
0-9655085-9-5) as a starting point for your research. The Author is William W. White. He had a website but I
haven't been able to find it, lately. E-mail me for a phone number if you need it or you can Google for more info.
I believe Google may archive old websites? Try Western Airtrails.com out of Logan, Utah.
If you make the journey, please report back here occasionally as I'd be very interested in your progress. I wish I
could tag along. It sounds like a great project.
