טקסט Storyboard

  • The Reason so many immigrants took the Oregon trail was they wanted the rich farmland, gold, and treasures Oregon had to offer.
  • The Oregon trail was a 2,000-mile route from Missouri to Oregon 
  • The journey took place in 1811-1840 and was traveled by foot and wagon alone.
  • The trail was huge and sliced through Missouri, present-day Kansas, Nebraska, Wyoming, Idaho and finally into Oregon. The origins of the trail lie within the Lewis and Clark expedition.
  • But because of hard circumstances sadly, one in every seventeen people on the trail died. 
  • The goal of the trip westward was to achieve “Manifest Destiny” to reach “from sea to shining sea.”
  • As more and more people took the Oregon trail posts and forts were created on the way as pitstops for the travelers.
  • In order to avoid the freezing cold winter, travelers left in the springtime, but that meant they had to endure brutal summer heat.
  • Because of harsh conditions along the trail many people would have to toss away valuable items to make their load lighter.
  • The trail consisted of many passes through rough mountains. One pass named the southern pass which had been used by Native Americans was the most important.
  • Once railroads were invented people no longer used the Oregon trail.
  • But in the end the Oregon trail proved to be a major key in U.S. westward expansion.
