A Tragic History Lesson

The Donner Party (sometimes called the Donner-Reed Party) was a group of American pioneers who set out for California in a wagon train. Delayed by a series of mishaps and mistakes, they spent the winter of 1846–47 snowbound in the Sierra Nevadas of Alta California. Some of the migrants resorted to cannibalism to survive. But you can read more at the related webpage.  Please use that for your resourse as I have seen some discrepencies.  So to solve this puzzle you will need that resourse.  Its a very tragic series of events the came upon this group. Please Solve the Puzzle below to get your self over that hugh obstacle and get to the treasure.
