Replica of old Pony Express Station

---

Simpson Springs was one of the most dependable watering points in Utah's west desert. Named for 1858 mail route explorer Captain Simpson, it was established as an Overland Mail station by George Chorpenning for mule train connection between Salt Lake and Sacramento. It later became an important Pony Express, Overland Stage, and later a Wells Fargo station on the trail through Utah deserts. The restored Pony Express station is located on a building site which date to the period (1860) and closely resembles the original structure.
