The Jones Plummer Trail began in Dodge City, Kansas and went southwest through the Oklahoma Panhandle into Texas. [cite book |title=Texas Panhandle Frontier |last=Rathjen |first=Frederick W. |year=1998 |publisher=Texas Tech University Press |isbn=0896723992 |pages=p. 132 ] [cite book |title=In Dull Knife's Wake: The True Story of the Northern Cheyenne Exodus of 1878 |last=Maddux |first=Vernon R. |year=2003 |publisher=Horse Creek Publications |isbn=0972221719 |pages=p. 54 ] Ed Jones and Joe Plummer originally used the route for bringing buffalo meat and hides to Dodge City. Later, the trail saw more use as a freight trail. At one point, this trail saw over 150,000 lbs of freight a week.
