The Trail Creek Valley

The Trail Creek Valley is a pass between two hills who reaches south from the Capital -N- Ranch and continues to Lake Victoria, also known as Indian Lake. At the mouth of the Valley lies a small Scandinavian settlement, further in, at the center of the mouth can the Trail Creek be found, it runs all the way down from the Gold Digger Camp, at the point where the trail start to follow parallel with the creek up to the Gold Digger Camp is a bridge leading over the Creek and to the Capital -N- Ranch.

On the left side on the banks of the creek right over the bridge lives Trail Creek Jim in his little shack, and right behind him by the side of the trail leading to the Capital N is the Old Boot Hill.

As we follow the trail and the creek upwards we come to the Jackalope trail who leads up to the Alamo Memorial that's erected on top a hill top to the left. Not too far further up the trail, (right underneath the hill top with the Alamo Memorial) lives Jens Magne Bruntland in his little rough cottage. He is claiming toll for anyone who passes over his land, who happens to stretch just across the trail.

1/3 up the Valley is Pilot Hill, a small military post. During the War of Independence, this was the base of the local militia, known as Fort Reagan, named after John H. Reagan, the Confederate Post-Master General and Texas' representative in the Confederate Cabinet.

Way Past Pilot Hill is the Gold Digger Camp, where misfortunate gold diggers from California settled down in February 1862.

On the other side of the Gold Digger Camp is where the Ole Spanish Trail begins,

leading into the unsettled part of the Valley and down to Lake Victoria.
