It has always been so with Ogallala, a town that came into existence at the junction of the major routes of the transcontinental migrations and of the cattle trails north from Texas." From 1870 to 1885, Ogallala was the "gateway of the Northern Plains". Hard-bitten Wyoming and Montana cattlemen met in Ogallala's hotel and saloons with Texas cattle kings and bargained over cattle prices. Gold flowed freely across the table, liquor across the bar, and occasionally blood across the floor as a bullet brought some unlucky cowhand to his death on the floorboards of Tuck's Saloon. The first non-native visitors to this area were the trappers from St. Louis. Next came the pioneers who followed the Oregon Trail. To protect them, the government established forts at intervals along the trail. Then came the Union Pacific Railroad. It is assumed that Ogallala had its beginning about 1867. Settlers started to follow the railroad west, and the cattlemen started driving their cattle to Ogallala to be shipped east or to be sold to Montana and Wyoming ranchers. Ogallala's early history was unspectacular, promising to be nothing but a section house and water tank for the railroad. Then, in the spring of 1868, three men appeared to set the destiny of Ogallala. These men were the Lonergan brothers and Louis Aufdengarten. The Lonergan brothers came to do construction work for the Union Pacific Railroad. They found the plains to their liking, and subsequently became interested in Ogallala. By 1876, Ogallala had changed little from its infant days in 1868. The stores were all south of the railroad tracks, and fronted what was called Railroad Street and the trail leading south to the Platte River. Along this trail extended the rest of the town. The town consisted of saloons with such names as The Cowboy's Rest and the Crystal Palace. The last building on the street was the Ogallala House - dining room widely patronized because of its excellent fare. It was run by S.S. Gast. By 1880, Ogallala consisted of one courthouse, one school, one hotel, two dwelling houses, and twenty-five permanent residents. The tempo of living in early Ogallala changed with the seasons. During the months of winter and early spring life was drab and dreary. Shortly after the first of June the town began to hum with activity as the first Texas trail herds started to arrive. During the three summer months business boomed - ten to twelve herds, each of two hundred or more trail hands taxed the facilities of Ogallala. Sleeping rooms and meals were hard to find when the trail hands were in town. Activities in Ogallala continued at a fever pitch until the end of August, by then the Texans were heading back to Texas; by November Ogallala had settled back in quiet and peaceful repose. Ogallala's population of floaters, gamblers, trades-people and dance hall hostesses drifted to Omaha or Cheyenne to spend the winter. One hotel, one supply house and a single saloon remained open for the winter. The community sank into a state of inanimation until next spring. In 1882-1884, the settlers and farmers reached Ogallala. These men were encouraged by the Union Pacific Railroad because the railroad started selling their land at quite low prices. A serious epidemic of Texas fever swept over Nebraska during the summer of 1884. The disease first appeared near Ogallala in July apparently being brought in by Texas cattle. The disease spread quickly and it caused very heavy losses to the cattlemen. The ranchers had started to put expensive blooded bulls in their herds. These ranchers demanded that Texas cattle be excluded from Nebraska. This ban of Texas cattle was a damaging blow to the Texas trail herd business. This was the end of the trail period of Ogallala, as the wild, often violent town became a peaceful farmer's settlement. Alta Vista Lot II at Lake Mac is 40 minutes from Ogallala and Interstate 80, 3 .5 hours northeast of Denver, CO and 4.5 hours west of Omaha, NE This property is only minutes away from the lake's famous white sands beaches, popular boat ramps, restaurants, and bars.

So war es schon immer bei Ogallala, einer Stadt, die an der Kreuzung der Hauptrouten der transkontinentalen Migrationen und der Viehwege nördlich von Texas entstand." Von 1870 bis 1885 war Ogallala das "Tor der nördlichen Ebenen". Hartgesottene Viehzüchter aus Wyoming und Montana trafen sich in Ogallalas Hotel und Saloons mit texanischen Rinderkönigen und feilschten über die Viehpreise. Gold floss ungehindert über den Tisch, Alkohol über die Bar und gelegentlich Blut über den Boden, wenn eine Kugel einen unglücklichen Kuhknecht auf den Dielen von Tuck's Saloon in den Tod brachte. Die ersten nicht-einheimischen Besucher in dieser Gegend waren die Trapper aus St. Louis. Es folgten die Pioniere, die dem Oregon Trail folgten. Um sie zu schützen, errichtete die Regierung in Abständen Forts entlang des Weges. Dann kam die Union Pacific Railroad. Es wird vermutet, dass Ogallala seinen Anfang um 1867 hatte. Die Siedler begannen, der Eisenbahn nach Westen zu folgen, und die Viehzüchter begannen, ihr Vieh nach Ogallala zu treiben, um es nach Osten zu verschiffen oder an Rancher in Montana und Wyoming zu verkaufen. Die frühe Geschichte von Ogallala war unspektakulär und versprach nichts anderes als ein Sektionshaus und Wassertank für die Eisenbahn zu sein. Dann, im Frühjahr 1868, erschienen drei Männer, um das Schicksal von Ogallala zu bestimmen. Es handelte sich um die Gebrüder Lonergan und Louis Aufdengarten. Die Lonergan-Brüder kamen, um Bauarbeiten für die Union Pacific Railroad durchzuführen. Sie fanden die Prärie nach ihrem Geschmack und begannen sich später für Ogallala zu interessieren. Bis 1876 hatte sich Ogallala im Vergleich zu seinen Kindertagen im Jahr 1868 kaum verändert. Die Läden befanden sich alle südlich der Bahngleise und lagen an der sogenannten Railroad Street und dem Weg, der nach Süden zum Platte River führte. Entlang dieses Weges erstreckte sich der Rest der Stadt. Die Stadt bestand aus Saloons mit Namen wie "The Cowboy's Rest" und "Crystal Palace". Das letzte Gebäude in der Straße war das Ogallala House - ein Speisesaal, der wegen seiner hervorragenden Küche sehr beliebt war. Es wurde von S.S. Gast betrieben. Um 1880 bestand Ogallala aus einem Gerichtsgebäude, einer Schule, einem Hotel, zwei Wohnhäusern und fünfundzwanzig ständigen Einwohnern. Das Tempo des Lebens im frühen Ogallala änderte sich mit den Jahreszeiten. In den Monaten des Winters und des frühen Frühlings war das Leben trist und trist. Kurz nach dem ersten Juni begann die Stadt vor Aktivität zu brummen, als die ersten texanischen Trail-Herden eintrafen. Während der drei Sommermonate boomte das Geschäft - zehn bis zwölf Herden mit jeweils zweihundert oder mehr Wanderarbeitern belasteten die Einrichtungen von Ogallala. Schlafräume und Mahlzeiten waren schwer zu finden, wenn die Trailarbeiter in der Stadt waren. Die Aktivitäten in Ogallala gingen bis Ende August auf dem Höhepunkt weiter, bis die Texaner nach Texas zurückkehrten; Im November hatte sich Ogallala wieder in ruhiger und friedlicher Ruhe niedergelassen. Die Bevölkerung von Ogallala, bestehend aus Floatern, Spielern, Händlern und Dancehall-Hostessen, zog nach Omaha oder Cheyenne, um dort den Winter zu verbringen. Ein Hotel, ein Versorgungshaus und ein einziger Salon blieben über den Winter geöffnet. Die Gemeinde versank bis zum nächsten Frühjahr in einen Zustand der Unbelebtheit. In den Jahren 1882-1884 erreichten die Siedler und Bauern Ogallala. Diese Männer wurden von der Union Pacific Railroad ermutigt, weil die Eisenbahn begann, ihr Land zu recht niedrigen Preisen zu verkaufen. Im Sommer 1884 brach Nebraska über eine schwere Epidemie des Texas-Fiebers aus. Die Krankheit trat erstmals im Juli in der Nähe von Ogallala auf und wurde offenbar von texanischen Rindern eingeschleppt. Die Krankheit breitete sich schnell aus und verursachte bei den Viehzüchtern sehr hohe Verluste. Die Viehzüchter hatten begonnen, teure blutige Bullen in ihre Herden zu setzen. Diese Viehzüchter forderten, dass texanische Rinder aus Nebraska ausgeschlossen werden sollten. Dieses Verbot von texanischen Rindern war ein schwerer Schlag für das Geschäft mit den texanischen Trail-Herden. Dies war das Ende der Wanderzeit von Ogallala, da die wilde, oft gewalttätige Stadt zu einer friedlichen Bauernsiedlung wurde. Alta Vista Lot II am Lake Mac liegt 40 Minuten von Ogallala und der Interstate 80, 3,5 Stunden nordöstlich von Denver, CO und 4,5 Stunden westlich von Omaha, NE Diese Unterkunft ist nur wenige Minuten von den berühmten weißen Sandstränden des Sees, beliebten Bootsrampen, Restaurants und Bars entfernt.
