Oregon Trail Autumn

#DoodlewashSeptember2024 prompt: Historic.

Did you know most settlers who followed the Oregon Trail left in April or May and arrived at their destination in early October? Leaving too early meant there were no grass for t heir animals to graze on, and too late meant they’d have to contend with more summer storms and winter snows.
