What is the name of the wagon that the pioneers used on the Oregon trail?
The most common wagon used on the trails westward was an ordinary farm wagon fitted with a white canvas top supported by hoops of flexible wood. They were often called "Prairie Schooners," possibly suggested by their white tops resembling sails. The Prairie Schooner was a smaller, lighter version of the Conestoga freight wagon. The big Conestogas required six horse teams. The Prairie Schooners needed no more than four horses, and were usually drawn by oxen in any event, making them much more affordable and easier to handle. Ironically, the great majority of migrants walked the whole distance, since the wagons were used primarily for household possessions and the drivers didn't want to overtax their teams with additional weight.

A number of features distinguished them from other wagons of the day.They were larger than most other wagons, and capable of hauling as much as eight tons of cargo.They were constructed with an up-curving bottom, which helped keep the load together and helped prevent tipping of individual pieces.They had heavier, wider wheels than most wagons, and the wheels were usually fitted with iron rims for durability.They had tapered ends and sloping sides, resembling a boat, and when caulked for watertightness, they could be floated across water.
