The trips by the pioneers was long and hard. They faced flooding rivers, snowing mountains, high steep passes, disease, miles of nothing, and death. One diary I read was from a woman who had six children, had a baby on the trail, her husband died, and lost their wagon over a cliff. She and the children walked to Oregon the final leg of their trip. They were starving and in rags when they were found. This is just one family, but it was a story that took place over and over.
