KnK Unforgettable Adventures the past few years:
Immerse Yourself in the Rugged History of the American West:
The Reno/Lake Tahoe region offers a captivating glimpse into the pioneering spirit of the past. We thoroughly enjoyed exploring this historic area, from the breathtaking vistas of Lake Tahoe to the poignant Donner Memorial Museum in Truckee, CA.
At the museum, we learned the harrowing tale of the Donner Party - a group of settlers who departed from Springfield, Illinois and set out on the Oregon Trail from Independence, Missouri in the spring of 1846. Their journey ended in unimaginable tragedy, as the party became trapped by an early winter snowstorm in the Sierra Nevada mountains.
