People back then went on the Oregon trail to start new lives. They had a 2,000 mile journey to Oregon. They WALKED the whole way even though it was long and dangerous. Many families died because of diseases, lack of food and water, and their were even some Indian attacks. They still traveled because there were good opportunities there.

The Mormon Pioneer Trail is a 1,300-mile travelled by members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints from 1846 to 1868. The Mormon Trail extends from Nauvoo, Illinois on the Mississipi river, passing through Iowa, Nebraska, Wyoming, and Eastern Utah to Salt Lake City, Utah.

The Mormon pioneer movement began in 1846 when, after having been driven once again by mob violence from their settled home, the Saints decided to establish a new home for the church outside the established boundaries of the United States. The trail was used for more than 20 years, until the completion of the First Transcontinental Railroad in 1869.

Among the emigrants were the Mormon handcart pioneers of 1856-1860. Two of the handcart companies, led by James G. Willie and Edward Martin, met disaster on the trail when they departed late and were caught by heavy snowstorms in Wyoming.

Once the Mormons arrived in Salt Lake, some were asked by the Prophet Brigham Young to go settle other places such as Genoa, Nevada; St. George, Utah; Cardston, Alberta, Canada and many other settlements in the territory of Deseret.

It depends on where you live and what you consider as "warm." if you live in the valley, as most Oregonians do, it is fairly descent for 9 months out of the year with upper 60-70's in early spring with warm summers. however, the Oregon coast is fairly cool all year round, and eastern Oregon fluctuates from freezing to intense heat.

and as most oregonians say, visit, don't move here!
