“It all happened right here.” Historic South Pass City saw a lot of American history, from cowboys to gold miners, from Oregon Trail emigrants to Native Americans. During Gold Rush Days held every July, you can relive much of that history and enjoy a few quirky ghost-town traditions while you’re at it! It’s all at South Pass City State Historic Site.
