Pony Express Monument

4.93 km away from here

The Pony Express Monument is an impressive sight to behold. It's a nod to the bygone era when telephones, emails, and instant messaging didn't exist, and people had to rely on horses to deliver their messages. The monument stands tall at 26 feet, with a statue of a rider and horse at the top, triumphantly holding out a piece of mail. However, let's not forget that the Pony Express was also a result of the exploited labor of young men.
