Shebby Lee to explore the past of the West on 7-day journey

Saturday, 17 Oct, 2007 0

Shebby Lee Tours comes out with a new leg of their Vanishing Trails Expeditions program again, this time for summer 2008. Visit the site of “Custer’s Last Stand,” stroll the same storied streets of Deadwood Gulch once inhabited by Calamity Jane, Wild Bill Hickok and Poker Alice, view awe-inspiring mountain carvings, and walk in actual Oregon Trail wagon ruts which have survived more than a century of sun, wind and weather. Dates for the Old West Trail are July 12-18, 2008, beginning and ending in Denver.

Like all Vanishing Trails Expeditions, the Old West Trail features living history, special speakers and events, authentic meals, interpretive centers, historic sites and other activities specifically related to the theme of the tour. These programs allow participants to experience first-hand the sites where the pivotal events of the history of the West actually took place.

Shebby Lee Tours’ Vanishing Trails Expeditions honoring America’s westward expansion movement were introduced in 1993 with the Oregon Trail, and have grown to include the Lewis & Clark Trail, Teddy Roosevelt’s Dakota, Custer’s Trail, Santa Fe Trail, American Legacy, Nez Perce Trail, Nevada’s Living Ghost Towns, Siouxland: the Dakota Conflict, and Bleeding Kansas: Where the Civil War Began.

All programs are led by professional tour directors trained in the historical background for every tour. They conduct the onboard discussions, provide necessary information for every stop and activity, and are there to augment the primary interpreters and re-enactors who make the subject come alive.
