Oregon Trail Series:
Soles Rest Creek
Thousands of emigrants
crossed
southwestern Idaho between
1843 and 1870 on their way
to the Willamette River valley in Oregon.
This creek was often dry when
the emigrants came through the area. Some diary accounts mention an
Indian massacre in this area. A variant of the Jeffrey-Goodale
cutoff rejoined the Oregon Trail at Soles Rest Creek.
"Sept. 6th ...A ravine about 2 miles...some water in seap holes
not very good...
Rev. John McAllister, 1852
