Crossing Amber - 2010 was released on: USA: 23 February 2010 (Portland, Oregon)
The river crossing on the Oregon Trail was often one of the most challenging and dangerous parts of the journey. Travelers faced swift currents and unpredictable water levels, which could lead to capsized wagons and loss of supplies. Many emigrants used fords or ferries, while others attempted to swim their animals across. The risks were significant, but successful crossings were essential for continuing the journey westward.
After crossing the Rocky Mountains, the Lewis and Clark expedition followed the Columbia River to the Pacific Ocean. This river offered a route that allowed them to reach the coast of Oregon and complete their journey westward.
Settlers began their journey to Oregon in the mid-1830s. The first large-scale migration of settlers, known as the Oregon Trail, took place in 1843 when around 1,000 people made the journey from the Midwest to Oregon.
