Bonsoir
1- The famous road the pionners used werebthe Oregon trail which lasted six months and the Natched Trace. That one ran from Nashville, Missouri, to Natchez, Mississippi.
2- The wagon trains were used to carry all the pionners' equipment, furnitures and personnal belongings.
Scouts were in charge of the safety of those wagons, riding ahead to find the best path.
3- The difficulties they encountered were mostly rough terrains, rivers and the weather.
4- At the end of the journey, most of the pioneers tried to buy lands when they could afford it. So they could build their own house and plant their crops. Lands next to rivers were much appreciated as water was very important for their daily life.
Those who couldn't afford it had to stay in tents or in their wagon.
