Explanation:
[STC003308] The infamous Oregon Trail was a path that stretched for 3,490 kilometers over a distance of 2,170 miles and was used by tens of thousands of American pioneers on their perilous trip westward to start a new life. The journey from Independence, Missouri to Oregon City, Oregon took anywhere from five to six months to accomplish due to the winding nature of the trail. Families that attempted the voyage were frequently met with peril in the form of disease, bad weather, and treacherous terrain. The state of the roads gradually got better over time, which allowed an increasing number of pioneers to travel there without risk. But the completion of the first transcontinental railroad in 1869 saw the beginning of the decline of wagon-travel, and today the Oregon Trail is a National Historic Trail commemorating American westward expansion.
