Caption

This is the approximate area where the Bidwell-Bartleson separated from the rest of their party that left Western Missouri in 1841. The Oregon-California Trail was somewhere by the highway in the upper portion of the photograph. The trail turned northwest which is in the upper left hand corner of the photo and the Bear River is in the upper right side. The Bidwell Party were told to stay on the right hand or west side of the river.
