Truckee

Watch the documentary, it's powerful
Combine with Donner Lake trails
Tragic and yet awe inspiring

The Emigrant Trail Museum brings the Donner Party's doomed 1846 crossing to life through artifacts and a powerful documentary. It's a somber but gripping look at one of America's most haunting pioneer stories.
