Pioneer hero, Daniel Boone, also known as "The Trailblazer" was the first pioneer to trek across the Appalachian mountains. Known as the "Wilderness Road", Boone's path started in Virginia, went southward to Tennessee, then north to Kentucky for a total of two hundred miles.
There were a number of different routes used by pioneers to cross the Appalachian Mountains in the North. One of the main routes was the Aurora and Terra Alta Turnpike.

The trail from the Appalachian mountains to West of Virginia was narrow and rough. It could be traversed only on horseback or on foot owing to its steepness. This was the Wilderness Road and was used by the early settlers for about fifty years.
The pioneers crossing the Sierra Nevada were generally trying to go to California. For example, the Donner Party emigrated from the United States to California in 1846 by crossing the Rocky Mountains, Great Basin, and finally the Sierra Nevada in order to settle in Mexican California.
The Cumberland Pass or Cumberland Water Gap was widened by loggers under Daniel Boone to make it more accessible for pioneers into the frontier. The route was not discovered by Boone but was along used highway of the American Indians that a Virginia Doctor named Thomas Walker discovered on one of his wilderness explorations.
Pioneers crossed the Rocky Mountains in search of land out west during the westward expansion in the 19th century. The journey westward presented many challenges, including harsh weather conditions and rugged terrain.
