Just convert that question to What types of people travel on I-40 or I-70 or I-25 or any other roadway of importance in this vast country. Think of the Silk Road or the Barbary Pirates, The answer is simple: * Every kind. * There were those seeking freedom from real or imagined opression. * There were people in a hurry. * There were adventurers and fortune seekers. * There were the third sons with no future on the home turf. * There were the poor and vagrant, and there were wealthy entreprneurs. * There were certifiable Nut Cases. * There were also crooks, thieves, murdererers and con artists galore who were waiting in line to fleece the immigrants. Sounds like the problems that in ancient times, today and in the distant future will be faced with when they begin some grand adventure.
