One of the first tasks a westbound emigrant or freight-hauling bullwhacker had to master was yoking their oxen. It could be a difficult chore, especially for those who had never done it before. Here is how artist William Henry Jackson described the process when he started as a bullwhacker on the Oregon Trail in 1866: "It was no easy task for us green hands to go into that corrall - the bulls ramming and crowding about... After half an hours chasing through the mass after a wild fellow, you corner him and manage to fasten the bow by working very carefully - some other steer, having a grudge probably against the one you are gently urging up to the wagon wheel to fasten - gives him a punch in the ribs with his horns and sends him "kiting" into the herd." -William Henry Jackson #TrailTuesday #MidwestNPS Image- A sketch of two men working to yoke an oxen. From the Scotts Bluff National Monument William Henry Jackson collection (SCBL-48). ... See MoreSee Less

"A good snapshot keeps a moment from running away." -Eudora WeltyMany visitors to Scotts Bluff National Monument take a snapshot or two to keep the memories of their visit to this landmark on the plains from "running away." In this photo from 1938, Dr. Howard R. Driggs, president of the American Pioneer Trails Association, takes a photo at the summit of Scotts Bluff. No word on whether he posted the resulting photo to Instagram. #SundayFunDay #MidwestNPS #photographylovers ... See MoreSee Less

The present peace and quiet of this place stands in contrast to the events that this landscape witnessed 174 years ago. The events linked to the mission station led to many deaths. Non-native and Native last breaths and blood were left here, and this place still bears these scars. Today, as we remember these events and their long-lasting impacts, we encourage you to visit this place, or re-visit this history. In doing so, discover the opportunities here to begin the processes of healing and learning. ... See MoreSee Less

Did you know that Jewish-American emigrants played an essential part in the development of Oregon and the American Frontier? "In Europe, Russia, and elsewhere, Jews faced a long history of persecution. But in the unsettled American frontier they could create their own destinies. Arriving as merchants, they were welcomed for the much needed goods and services they provided to the growing towns." As we continue to celebrate this year's Festival of Lights, check out OPB's "The Jewish Frontier" to learn more about these amazing early Oregonians. Happy Hanukkah! https://www.opb.org/television/programs/oregon-experience/article/the-jewish-frontier/ ... See MoreSee Less

“The game, called The Oregon Trail, would go on to sell over 65 million copies, many of them to educational institutions, making it one of the bestselling games of all time, right up there with Super Mario Bros. and Tetris. But when I talked to Rawitsch recently, he said that when he first came up with the idea, making money was the furthest thing from his mind.”https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2021/11/oregon-trail-game-history-inventor-don-rawitsch.html ...

If you were moving a great distance, what items would you decide to bring with you?When Marcus and Narcissa Whitman were planning their cross-continent journey to become missionaries in the Oregon Country, they had to make hard decisions about what items constitute necessity and which were luxury. As they would be spreading their religion, the Bible was going to be a necessity for them to spread their beliefs. While we do not know whether this Bible traveled across the country with them, they most certainly brought one as they performed services during their journey and soon after they arrived in Oregon Country.This Bible eventually became owned by Perrin Whitman, Marcus's nephew and it now resides in the Whitman Mission National Historic Site museum as one of the few objects in our collection known to have been owned by Marcus and Narcissa Whitman.Photo: A bible on display with its front cover opened, pencil inscription on the inside cover detailing ownership of the bible#NationalBibleWeek #WhitmanMission #Bible #Artifacts ...
