In the year 1848, as the westward expansion of the United States reaches its zenith, the McKay family sets out from Missouri in search of a new life in the Oregon Territory. Led by the patriarch, William McKay, a rugged frontiersman and skilled hunter, the family faces countless challenges along their arduous journey.
