Chapter Six: DIVISION THREE: STATIONS BETWEEN HORSESHOE CREEK AND SALT LAKE CITY (continued) SUMMARY From Horseshoe Creek, Wyoming to Salt Lake City, Utah, Pony Express riders acquired new horses and food, as well as resting places at forty-six stations along the third division of the Pony Express National Historic Trail. Of the forty-six stations, two are marked by commemorative plaques/monuments. Only one of the forty-six stations documented in this division is listed on the National Register of Historic PlacesFort Bridger Station. Based upon the number of total stations in this section compared to the number of markers and National Register listings, Division Three requires a substantial amount of additional archival and field research of its station sites.
