Emigrant National Historic Trail, Wyoming

            For over 80 years in the 19th century, an estimated 300,000 emigrants used the Oregon National Historic Trail as a pathway to the Pacific. Fur traders, gold seekers, missionaries and others traveled west on the approximately 2,000 miles of trail, from Missouri towards the Rocky Mountains to Oregon’s Willamette Valley. The once 5-month journey can now be traveled via auto touring, and portions can be travel on foot, mountain bike, and horseback. The trail goes through Wyoming, Idaho, Oregon and Washington.
