Some Native American tribes got along well with the Mormon pioneers and others did not. For the most part, the Native Americans were willing to help the pioneers because they too had be driven from their homelands. A pretty large Native American population was baptized into the Mormon Church, and today outreach among Native Americans continues.

Both! Mormons (members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) travel any way they can.
