Antelope Peak Station was once a remote outpost along the Butterfield Overland Mail, the longest stagecoach route in the world. But it's history dates back much further than that.

For centuries travelers through the desert have used Antelope Peak (now Antelope Hill) as a landmark on their journeys. Not only is it visible for miles in all directions, there was once water nearby.

In this video we travel down Old Highway 80 and take a look at the Butterfield Trail in Arizona and the history around Antelope Hill.
