Describe the pioneer travel experience to the frontier

American pioneers were people who, in different periods of US history, but especially in the 18th century and the first half of the 19th century, moved westward, settling new territories.

Some of the pioneers migrated to establish farms with their families. Others were trappers or went west to engage in various types of business, with no intention of settling there forever.   Most of the pioneers went to the West in wagon caravans. These people cut down forests, built themselves log cabins, and drove the Indians out of the lands they occupied.  

The more settlers arrived in uninhabited places, the more among them became not hunters, but farmers. The most enterprising people bought plots of land on the cheap, and when it became more expensive, they sold it to the next settlers, and they themselves moved on, paving the way for others.
