APRIL 23 – 27, 2025, the 11th annual Kit Carson Mountain Men Wagon Train will trek for five days on back roads and Old Highway 49, starting in Plymouth and visiting Amador County’s historic Main Streets along the way. The Wagon Train features beautiful teams of horses handled by dedicated drivers who welcome the opportunity to share their love of history with the public.
