ZEBULON PIKE TO SANTA FE
In 1806 Zebulon Pike, with 75 men, undertook a venture to Santa Fe to explore trade in that area. When he built a fort on Spanish soil the Mexican Army escorted Pike and his men on a 600-mile voyage to Chihuahua, Mexico to meet General Nemesio Salcedo, Commandant General of all Spanish forces in Northern Mexico. On Pike's return to the states he brought back a glowing report of the gold to be made by trading with the Spaniards.
