Shafter's Trail is a park in Texas, at a modelled 968 m. Jumbo Hill stands 1,044 m to the west-northwest, 24 miles off. 29 named places lie within 25 miles.
Here Col. Shafter, defending his party, chased Indians who ran 12 miles to the northwest. Thus he found the salt lake known ever after by his name. His expedition's maps of this formerly unknown land opened the Permian Basin to settlement
