Where did the pioneers start theri journey to the west and where did it end?

The pioneers primarily started their journey to the west from various locations in the eastern United States, with many departing from cities like St. Louis, Missouri, or Independence, Missouri. Their journey typically ended in the western territories, particularly in areas that would become states like California, Oregon, and Utah. The Oregon Trail and the California Trail were two of the most significant routes taken during this westward expansion. The journey was often arduous and filled with challenges, but it marked a significant chapter in American history.


How old was America when the Oregon trail took place?

The Oregon trail got its start in 1823, so America would have been 47 years as a country from Europe from the Revolution. However, the 'generation of the Oregon Trail' is accepted between 1841-1866, which places America at 65-90 years free. Hope this helps.

How did the Mormon trail change the American west?

The Mormon Trail didn't change the American West, because the Mormon Trail was next to the Oregon Trail. Another answer: The Mormon Trail followed the Oregon Trail until it hit Fort Bridger, Wyoming. There the Mormon Trail split off down toward where Salt Lake City, Utah is today. The largest change the Mormon Trail did to change the American West is bring a large influx of people into the American West. People who were willing to try to settle the desert areas in Utah and Idaho that no one else wanted to touch. It also helped solidify a trail that lead was a main stopping point for people headed to Oregon or California. People traveling on either the Oregon or California Trails would go to Salt Lake City and resupply before continuing their journey west, usually rejoining the trails around the southern central part of Idaho right near the Idaho-Utah border.
