These are ruts made by the people traveling west in wagon trains around 1850. They made such an impression, they still exist 170 years later. These ruts are near Hermiston, Oregon.

(M) This book was written about my family's journey on the Oregon Trail in 1845. I'm a direct descendant of Hopestill. The story is written from the perspective of Lovisa (Lo-vy-suh), who was 17 at the time of the crossing. They settled the town of King's Valley.

(M) My mother passed down to me a quilt my ancestors hand stitched on the Oregon Trail in 1845. It's a classic double Irish chain, all the rage at the time. My mother had it verified and documented in 2019. It's now part of a national database.

A large, clear plastic bin filled with a cardboard box, a cowboy hat, and some rope is in the foreground. Boots underneath a burlap sack are to the left of the bin. Behind the bin is a wooden barrel, a black side table with a small lamprey on top, a large wooden display case, a beaver pelt, and some clothes. To the right of the bin are some strips of cardboard with masking tape on the floor. In the background is a floor-to-ceiling window with a man and a woman behind it, holding signs next to a yellow 6-foot-tall ladder.

We are part of the Heritage in Focus: A Community-Curated Exhibit at the Historic City Hall in West Linn. It brought together the EOT community for a dive into our site's grounds history. The exhibits display the richness of the Willamette Falls Heritage Area region.

2 tan stuffed animal bunnies are sitting between 3 baskets filled with plastic eggs and fruit. One bunny is in the basket with the plastic fruit, and the other is propped up next to the plastic egg basket. In the background, there is a bench, area rugs, and another piece of furniture that is hard to make out what it is exactly.

A figure dressed in pioneer clothing is packing a green wagon-looking box. The figure is holding a white sack and placing bowls and cups into the wagon-looking box filled with other sacks and barrels. There is an old-looking wagon and a plastic horse in the background

🌷It's that time of year!🌼 In spring, settlers prepared for their journey to the Oregon Territory, a vital step towards claiming free land. Our wagon packing activity offers a unique opportunity for families and history enthusiasts to experience a portion of Oregon Trail history. #OregonTrail #Oregon

FREE! 1847 Oregon Trail Sourdough Starter Remember during Covid when everyone decided to learn how to bake bread and making sourdough became a pastime of sorts? Do you remember the Oregon Trail stories from school? How would you like some sourdough starter that dates back almost 175 years? All it costs is a SASE (self-addressed, stamped envelope.) In the mid 1800's the Oregon Trail was the main route west for settlers, farmers, lumbermen and prospectors.

Do you remember learning about the Oregon Trail? Can you imagine that sourdough starter that was on the trip is still available? And all it costs is two stamps? Details on how to get yours. --> #Wisconsin #OregonTrail #SourdoughStarter #Free #Baking #DonnerPass

Two older men, dressed in pioneer clothing, stand outside a wooden building. One of the men has their arms out like they are asking for a hug, while the other has his hands in his pants pockets. There is a red wagon/carriage to the right and a bench to the left of where they are standing. The angle at which the photo was taken is pointing down from above the roof of the building.

Scotts Bluff National Monument in Nebraska stands under a summer sky mottled with clouds. It has vertical sides, devoid of vegetation, and sits on a wide meseta with grass and some brush. Other than the small plants, the ground seems pretty dry. The top of the mountain appears with a pyramidal shape.

Scotts Bluff National Monument in Nebraska stands under a summer sky mottled with clouds. A very distinctive geological formation, it was a key landmark for pioneers going west in the 19th century. August 2025.

Someone just asked if I’d trade cigarettes for coffee (what is this, the fucking #OregonTrail?), & when I told him I didn’t have any cigarettes & also wouldn’t if I did, he laughed & said, “I guess I’ll go kill myself.”

I #lol ‘d too (I’m congenial), & said, “That’s your business, friend.” 😆

Despite my age I have somehow managed to completely miss this entire series of games! I've always wanted to play them but never got around to it until today. I'm starting with a pretty early version here! #games #oregontrail

A friend told me the other day that when she was a kid she strung along a game of Oregon Trail for so long that she got the date to roll over into the 1900s.
