His railroad surveys helped establish northern routes in the Dakotas Utah Montana Idaho and Washington all of which helped produce some of the most detailed maps of these territories. These maps and subsequent railroad distance charts contributed to more people traveling and exploring western states and territories like Utah.</p><p>According to Howes on Simpson's exploration route:</p><p>"This route explored in 1859 shortened the distance to California by 250 miles; it was adopted by the overland mail pony express and telegraph.
