The Oregon Trail. In 1843, a large wagon train of 1,000 people went on the journey on a path called, "The Oregon Trail" to find new land and new lives. These settlers did not know they were about to make either the best choice of their lives or the worst choice they have ever made.

So many people had made it but not all could see what life was like at their dream home in another land.
