Applegate Trail
The Applegate Trail was a wilderness trail through today's U.S. states of Idaho, Nevada, California, and Oregon, and was originally intended as a less dangerous route to the Oregon Territory.
==Background==
In 1843, part of the Applegate family of Missouri headed west along the Oregon Trail to the Oregon Country.〔Most, Stephen. (The Oregon History Project: Subtopic : Inhabiting the Land: The Applegate Trail. ) Oregon Historical Society. Retrieved on June 8, 2008.〕 Charles, Jesse, and Lindsay led their families along the trail and lost two children on the journey down the Columbia River.〔 The hardships along the way influenced the family to find an easier and safer way to the Willamette Valley.〔
In 1846, the Oregon Provisional Legislature allowed the Applegates and others to attempt to find a more southerly route to Oregon.〔
〕 The group began the task on June 25, 1846, with Jesse Applegate, Lindsay Applegate, David Goff, John Owen, B. F. Burch, W. Sportsman, Robert Smith, a Mr. Goodhue, J. Jones, B. Ausbuan, and Levi Scott starting the survey.〔〔 Leaving La Creole, the party spent three and a half months surveying a route to Fort Hall in present day Idaho.〔 At that location the Applegate Trail departed the main branch of the Oregon Trail.〔Corning, Howard M. (1989) ''Dictionary of Oregon History''. Portland: Binfords & Mort Publishing. p. 218–19.〕 On the return trip, the group brought approximately 150 immigrants along this southern route, also known as the South Road, South Emigrant Trail or the Scott-Applegate Trail.〔
