Abstract

This text discusses the ongoing efforts to locate the remaining portion of the Oregon Trail from the years 1840-47, specifically the section from the mission to Tub Spring. The authors use a map provided by Kolecki to illustrate the route across the Walla Walla Valley to the Mojonnier ford of the Walla Walla River. The map also highlights the missions millrace and the Pambrun hay field. The text provides valuable information for researchers interested in the history and geography of the Oregon Trail.
