The program "Indian Trails" will focus on the earliest routes of travel that often began as animal trails before their use by the Indians and evolved into paths used by fur traders, trappers and pioneers moving into the western frontier. Few visible signs remain and some provide a precedent for later highway routes in the example of "Catfish Path" and "Mingo Path".
