When we look back on the emblematic historical figures of the Santa Fe Trail, we often think of a merchant traveling to find wealth in Mexico. While the trail was certainly home to such characters, this generalization overlooks the unique motivations that drove men and women to brave the hazards of the overland trails, and how these motivations shaped their roles within their caravans. By necessity, caravans functioned as tight-knit groups during the journey to Santa Fe, but they were not insulated from social divisions. This episode explores these social dynamics as they appeared in moments of hardship along the trail, and how three uniquely situated travelers made the most of their journeys across the West.
