Farmers and missionaries traveling to the Far West, particularly during the mid-19th century, commonly used the Oregon Trail. This route began in Missouri and stretched over 2,000 miles through present-day states like Kansas, Nebraska, Wyoming, and Idaho, ultimately leading to Oregon and California. The trail offered a path for those seeking fertile land and new opportunities in the western territories. Along the way, travelers faced numerous challenges, including harsh weather, rugged terrain, and potential conflicts with Indigenous peoples.
