[edit] KCAHTA "California Road" Markers (NW Johnson County)

During Freedom's Frontier National Heritage Area skirmishes between Kansas and Missouri raiders, the jumping off points for emigrant wagon trains shifted north from Gardner, Kansas. They followed the Kaw River ridges westward from the Shawnee Methodist Mission which was the same route John Fremont used from Westport Landing to the Wakarusa Valley south of Lawrence, Kansas.

The Kansas City Area Historic Trails Association (KCAHTA) carefully marked this National Historic Trail branch as the "California Road."

The Modern Signs of Our Time Unique to the metropolitan area, brown metal signs were placed by the Kansas City Area Historic Trails Association (KCAHTA) throughout the county. In addition to the Santa Fe and Oregon-California Trails, these signs also document the California Road (also known as the Westport to Lawrence Road) and the Fort Leavenworth Military Road. Over 350 signs were placed on local roadways at (Kansas Territory land survey section lines) where the trails crossed.
