The success of your trip to Oregon depends upon the supplies that you can bring with you. Before you begin your journey, plan what supplies you would need to accommodate your family. Your wagon can only hold 1000 pounds. Plan carefully. List your supplies on the
worksheet provided.
When creating your supply list, remember that the pioneers could not stop at Super Food Mart for bottled water, food, or other needed daily items. Plan carefully. Family treasures (heirlooms) ) should also be considered.

You can estimate their weight, if not given, by looking at their pictures and deciding how they were used.
