Until you got the thought of sharing some whiskey, blurring their vision and stealing it all under the banner of "Manifest Destiny" while never acknowledging the government of the society you belong to is based on one the first encountered, the Haudenosaunee, instead you're hiding a showing of humility.
I realized years ago that I was born 120 years too late, and not a day goes by that, strangely enough, I don't wish I had lived and been a pioneer back then.
I am the same way. So much so, I became a filmmaker and finished a script that deals with this era. I also make a point to watch as many westerns as possible, and have visited many museums that about this time in history. I feel like I am in the wrong time.
Excellent! I'm fully caught up on your videos and was waiting on the next upload. Think I'll save it for my plane ride home but liked it and comment for the algorithm
I don't think that the term Cowboy fits well for the immigrants of the Oregon trail. You have a ball point pen and modern rebar, anachronisms, at the time of the Oregon trail. I truly enjoy your delivery.
Another great upload filled with great stories! Keep up the good work guys and gals!
Thank you so much, Jon! We'll see you at the next installment.
Just found your channel and really enjoying it. Commenting for the boost!
Thank you, very interesting and informative
Glad you enjoyed it!
The thought of getting shot full of arrows would have had me more than likely a non pioneer 😂

@@Jason-hg1pcwhat?
@@Timbergal Look up Haudenosaunee, or don't you have a library card?
@@Timbergal How?
Not to mention SURVIVING getting scalped!
Wagon choice was also effected by were you were going and how much you needed to transport between possessions and needed supplies.

I respect y’all because I can’t. I need a functioning toilet and some toilet paper.
Join a biker gang. They're more similar to their ancestors than the descendants you find there.
Clearly, you are not of the female persuasion.
I presume none of you are women.
Love the narratives voice,great story. Thank you!

We sincerely appreciate it! Regular viewers like you mean so much to the channel. Enjoy!
Maybe you should make one about all the positives about the Oregon trail. I'm sure they weren't always bored, always forlorne.
This was really cool thankyou for posting it. I'm a high maintenance unstable diabetic I think I would have made it about a week 🤣
Spare a moment for the settler's a nd what they had to endure before u complain about nowadays comfortable and cosy lifestyle!
They were very tough people
Talk about a sanitized version of the Oregon Trail.
Believe me you would have wanted to walk out here. Riding in a wagon didn't happen for the most part.
Yep. Most of us do know that.
Check the dates...I don't think crochet was invented during the Oregon trail days....
Needle point, embroidery, knitting, yes....crochet... idk.
subbed!

Men were having conversations while the women were gossiping huh?
Over done friend,less is more.
How did they wash ?
Buckaroo
@14:42 Where did they post their letters? Do you think they had spare paper and ballpoint pens? An established Postal Service?
The post service was started in the constitution. Before that letters were carried by ships.
@6:04...so THAT's why they're known by the Natives as "pail-faces"!
Very unrealistic to me.
Why don't they just boil the water??
