Oregon Trail Park

The 18 section of land group stop was committed in 1981 and named after the Oregon Trail which passed adjacent.

The Oregon Trail was the course for a huge number of individuals who moved toward the western wildernesses from the late 1830's through the Civil War, making a case for a great part of the West.

In 1842, the Bidwell-Bartleson party left the Oregon Trail in Idaho and became the first wagon train to California. The route is commonly referred to as the Oregon-California Trail utilized upon the discovery of gold in California in 1849.
