I think what you are asking for is Donner Pass, located in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California.
Allegedly the Donner Party set up a camp of about 2 miles for around 5 days at the base of Rattlesnake Mountain. Donner Springs Neighborhood is at the base of this mountain. The party rested in this camp prior to continuing their journey to California through the Sierra Nevada Mountains, where they met their eventual demise.
donner party xD once agan i answer my question
The Donner Pass cuts through the Sierra Nevada mountain range in California. This pass is historically significant as it was a key route for westward migration during the mid-19th century, particularly for the ill-fated Donner Party. It connects the western and eastern slopes of the Sierra Nevada, providing access to various recreational and transportation routes.

48 of 87 pioneers survived the trip. Near Truckee Lake, Northwest of Lake Tahoe in the Sierra Nevada Mountains on the border of North California and Nevada, the Party could go no further. Most survived by cannibalizing their family members and others who died of starvation in what is now known as The Donner Pass.
No. He urged the Donner Party to take a shortcut which caused the party unnecessary hardship. If the Donner Party had not taken the shortcut, they would have made it to Sacramento before snow came to the Sierra Nevada mountains.
The Fancher Party.The Fancher Party wagon train killed and has very little survivors. This happened in Sierra Nevada.
The Donner Party was aware of the Sierra Nevada mountain pass, but they underestimated the challenges it presented. They initially followed established routes, but after taking a shortcut suggested by Lansford Hastings, they became trapped in the mountains during an early winter storm. Their lack of preparation and understanding of the terrain ultimately contributed to their dire situation.
Yep, they are still stuck there. Jk, the 48 of 87 who survived were rescued in February of 1847.
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.
