The rescuers of the Donner Party were primarily from two groups: the first relief party, led by William H. Eddy and William McCutchen, reached the stranded group in February 1847. A second relief party, which included James Reed, also played a significant role in the rescue efforts. These rescuers faced harsh conditions and difficult terrain to save the survivors of the ill-fated expedition.
