Why was lansford Hastings to blame for the donner party?
Not entirely. His description of the route across Utah and into California was not accurate, misstating distances and availability of water. However, Hastings himself successfully crossed the same route. Other factors, especially the weather, were equally as important in the tragedy. Had the party gotten over the Sierra Nevada Mountains before the first heavy snow, they would have made it safely to California. I disagree. Lansford Hastings recommended the route to California before he actually tried it. When he finally did try it himself, he did it on horseback, not with oxen and covered wagons. Oxen and covered wagons traveled at a much slower pace...duh... especially when navigating through forested valleys and salt deserts. Timing was everything when you needed to cross the Sierra Nevada Mountains before the snow came, and Lansford Hasting's "times" were seriously inaccurate due to a fact he should have compensated for. His wrong ideas cost other people their lives. why?
