The quick answer is between the years 1841 and 1869. The Oregon Trail was one of the original main routes from East to West in American. Those migrating to the pacific northwest (including settlers, ranchers, businessmen, farmers, miners, and others) would typically start the journey in April or May, so that the various needs were met while on the trail (i.e. grass for the animals, water for everyone, etc).

The Oregon Trail was also a fantastic game, one that I played in the late 80s, that taught what it was like to be a pioneer in the 1800's.
