Miners moved west in the 1800s primarily due to the Gold Rush, which began with the discovery of gold in California in 1848. This event sparked a mass migration of prospectors and fortune seekers hoping to strike it rich. Additionally, the promise of other valuable resources, such as silver and copper, and the expansion of the American frontier motivated many to seek opportunities in the West. The allure of wealth and the spirit of adventure drove thousands to leave their homes for the uncertain prospects of the western territories.
