Middle Creek/Gate Station (N39 17 48.4 W117 56 51.6) 

The site location is unknown. There are two likely areas for this station. One is at White Rock Springs, a ½ mile south of US 50 and about 1½ miles east of Middlegate Butte. Another would be anywhere along the 4 miles between Middlegate and Westgate along an arroyo that often has seeps or short lengths of running water. The meadows between Middlegate and Westgate also would attract an Overland station because of the native hay ripe after June each year.  http://www.expeditionutah.com/featured-trails/pony-express-trail/nevada-pony-express-stations/

MIDDLE GATE STATION 

Several sources, including the mail contract of 1861, list Middle Gate as a station.  The exact location of Middle Gate or Middlegate remains unknown, but a station in this area would serve as a logical place to divide the thirty-five mile stretch between Sand Springs and Cold Springs.  Richard Burton mentions Middle Gate as a stopping place during his journey.  http://www.nps.gov/parkhistory/online_books/poex/hrs/hrs8a.htm#145
