The border on the southern edge is made up of the grade of the Old Moab Road and the west by a line running east-southeast to west-northwest from ten feet west of the edge of the hill that is the eastern boundary. The northern border is a line running generally east-west at the crest of the hill the Trail is on. Boundary Justification: The boundaries, as established above, encompass all the area that is discernable as part of the trail without including any areas of later use that destroyed the integrity of the Trail, such as the segment of heavily graded road that makes up the southern border of the Trail site. The site was not increased because Park development and U.S. Highway 191 have already destroyed the historic scene.
