Weather on the Oregon Trail was brutal most of the time due to either too much heat, too much cold, a blizzard, rain, or another type of storm. These were especially brutal if you had been on the trail for a long time. The journey takes 4-6 months.
There weren't any roads to Oregon at the time.
It took about 6 months to travel the Oregon trail. It was the same for the trail to California as well.
It took about $600.00 in their time... So you had to be VERY rich to go on the Oregon Trail.

The Oregon Trail was a way for migrants to go westward to receive land (cheap land, courtesy of the government, called the Homestead Act.) The journey on the Oregon Trail was made on covered wagons during the Westward Expansion time period. The Oregon Trail was only one of many trails to the Western United States.
The best time to visit Oregon is in the late summer (August).
