  unimportant supplies. This was our home and
  shelter on the journey.

  ft. waterfall. This is one of the landmarks that
  we stopped at. When we stopped here we had a
  picnic. This was an enjoyable stop.

Wild Animals

  is the most common animal we saw. When the men
  hunted for dinner the meat we usually ate was
  deer.

Fort Hall

  of the landmarks that we stopped at along the
  trail. Many people mailed letters to family and
  friends at this fort.

Grande Ronde

  This was such a beautiful place to be going
  through. We had many picnics here because it was
  so pretty.

River Crossings

• This is when we were crossing a river and our
  wagon got stuck. We had to pull really hard to
  get it unstuck from the muddy swamp. Our oxen had
  to pull really hard and almost died from pulling
  so hard.

Native American Tribes

• We met many Indian tribes along the way. One of
  the tribes was the Arapaho. They were very nice
  to us. Many of the other tribes were very cruel
  to us.

Entertainment

• We had many different things to entertain us on
  the journey. One of them was the banjo.
  Children and adults would play the banjo around
  the fire at night.
