Hear their stories
Narrations taken from thousands of authentic emigrant diaries and journals in search of new lives, new land, new wealth, or religious freedom.
Several Galleries and life-sized displays
Spend time with those who played a role in America's west: transcontinental railroad construction crews, fur trappers, Mountain men, missionaries, explorers, hope-filled families and reckless "Forty-Niners" of the California Gold Rush. Forge the North Platte River in a wagon or travel dusty roads in a stage coach.
