Two wagon caravans converge at what is now Kansas City, and combine for the westward push to Oregon. On their quest the pilgrims will experience desert heat, mountain snow, hunger, and indian attack.

One of the first silent I remember having the chance to see years ago. Always been a major western fan and this is it; probably the most studied piece of work in the entire genre, at least of this era. Must have been really amazing to see this back in the days...Excellent.
