		The Missouri River was the only "road" to the West through Lexington, so Becknell probably followed an Indian trail, the Osage Trace, which ran a few miles south of Lexington west to Fort Osage.
		However, Lexington was already in the process of routing the westward land traffic through the town.
		With the success of the new Santa Fe Trail, some of the early traders from central Missouri may have continued to follow the old Indian route, but probably most of the early traderz went through Lexington, since, in the 1820's it was the last American town of any size.
