The Oregon Trail was an important passageway that served as a major migratory route from Missouri to Oregon in the mid 19th century. It was used by nearly 400,000 ranchers, farmers, miners, settlers, and assorted businessmen. Factors such as temperature, weather, and the lack of supplies impacted those traveling on the route because these factors made the journey more dangerous and created numerous problems for travelers along the route.
