What was the reason for the Oregon trail trip?

The Oregon Trail was designed as a passageway for settlers who were moving West with the Great Expansion. The trail ran from the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers through the harsh terrain of the northern Rockies. It was originally laid out by fur trappers and traders who trapped beaver (primarily) in the waterways of the north and northwest, and was quite impassable in the early years. Later it became a more and more reliable route for those on horseback and those who were emigrating with their families by covered wagon to populate the West.
