Description: Topographical map of much of Independence, Missouri, showing roughly the route of the ancient "Great Osage [Indian] Trail" through the region. The trail originates near central Missouri, Boonville and Franklin, Missouri, followed the route of modern U.S. 24 highway, and portions of modern Lexington Street and Westport Road in Independence, Missouri (the curved portions of each street in modern Independence, Missouri).

Author: I patch-worked together USGS sectional maps of the region online, such as the segment shown at http://preview.tinyurl.com/339hlmv, and added the blurry red line with MS (Microsoft) "Paint". While the maps are dated "7/1/1995", the data was originally collected and published in 1980.
